Two Sides of the Same Coin : Examples of Free and Unfree Education in Slovakia during the Period of Socialism Paperback / softback
Edited by Blanka Kudlacova
Part of the Spectrum Slovakia series
Paperback / softback
Description
The book examines Slovak education as an example of totalitarianism, exploring two opposing sides: the publicly expressed values and ideals of ofï¬ cial compulsory education subordinated to government power and the alternative ideals and concepts of unofï¬cial education implemented by informal groups and underground organizations (dissent).
The authors seek answers to Hannah Arendt’s iconic questions: What happened?
Why did it happen? How could this happen? The title of the book also references the dualism in the lives of individuals and families who did not identify with the doctrine of Marxism-Leninism and totalitarian ways of governing.
In order to preserve their inner freedom, they lived a double life, one in private and the other in public.
