Description

Toward an Imperfect Education challenges conventional cosmopolitan theory by examining the paradox between universal humanity and human pluralism. This Routledge publication critiques the assumed goodness underlying humanistic ideals and confronts how conflict, violence, and suffering form integral aspects of pluralistic societies. Todd argues that irreducible human difference shapes ethical and political dimensions of education, requiring educators and policymakers to engage with humanity's genuine complexity rather than sanitised ideals. The book reconceptualises how educational philosophy must account for antagonistic human interactions as fundamental to social life. Part of the Interventions series on education, philosophy, and culture, it offers critical perspectives on cosmopolitanism's limitations and advocates for educational approaches grounded in realistic, nuanced understandings of human nature and global relationships.
