Abstract

The first chapter is about the concept of neutrality within educational institutions and underscores the crucial role played by political and ideological diversity in the field of education. This chapter explores the feasibility of establishing schools that remain politically and ideologically neutral, shedding light on the responsibility involved in shaping the political orientation of educational institutions. Furthermore, the chapter critically examines alternative educational approaches that pose challenges to the dominant Western worldview. In doing so, it initiates a thought-provoking discussion on the complex dynamics between pedagogy, politics, and diverse philosophical perspectives within the realm of education.
