Democracy and Education

The book explores the evolving nature of learning and the relationship between children and adults in society. As civilization progresses, the gap between children's understanding and adult activities widens, making direct participation in adult occupations less feasible. This shift necessitates a more structured approach to education, where schools and intentional learning environments become essential for bridging this divide. The text highlights the importance of training and preparation for children to effectively engage with the complexities of adult life.
