The school-prison: from futurism to the Situationist

The central assumption of Giovanni Papini, in his closing schools 1914, was that the school could not teach anything good, because the boys locked up in prison where there was the first condition for a healthy learning: freedom.
It is highly significant finding, in the incipit of another text-edge against the school (this time written at the end of the last century), the same metaphor of the prison.
It 's notice to students of Raoul Vaneigem , writer and philosopher situation even living.
read the first two sentences of this enlightening book: The

school was with the family, factory, barracks and incidentally the ' hospital and prison , the inescapable move in which the company mercantile bent to his advantage the fate of human beings that are said.

The government has exerted on it yet passionate nature of the apparent freedom of childhood, in fact, in those places that are not conducive to the achievement and happiness that were - and remain in varying degrees - the family compound, the 'factory or office, the' military institution the clinic, the prison .

hours reread the opening words of Papini:

mistrust of 'large-area apartment buildings, where many people close themselves up or are locked up. Prisons, Churches, Hospitals , Parliaments, barracks, asylums, Schools, ministries and convents. Codest public buildings are ominous: indisputable signs of general illness. Defense against crime - against death - against foreigners - against the disorder - the solitude - against everything that frightens the man left to himself, the coward eternal laws that works with companies such as ramparts and trenches to his tremebondaggine.

seems incredible, after almost 80 years, find the same combinations (school-prison-barracks-hospital) objectives, again, in texts that are so similar. Yet this is important to define the state of total swamping of the school. The accusation of Futurist
Papini, developed in the early decades of the twentieth century, he married one of the Situationist Vaneigem, widespread over the last decade of the century.
The avant-garde culture has always launched its attacks against the school in a peremptory manner. The school is the first brake on any attempt at innovation.

Vaneigem read again:

The school has perhaps lost the disgusting character that appeared in the nineteenth and twentieth century when it broke the spirits and bodies of the harsh realities of slavery and performance, making the glory of educate duty, authority and austerity, not for pleasure and passion ? Nothing is less certain, and you can not deny that under the apparent concern of modernity, many archaisms continue to mark the lives of students and students. The company

school Did not obeyed until now a dominant concern: improving techniques of instruction so that the animal be profitable?

is clearly centered on the target. The school teaches the duty and authority, instead of educating through the pleasure and passion. There are turns of phrase. No need for sophisticated arguments. The sad reality is for everyone. The school makes a big mistake by giving value to the principles of duty and authority, while completely demolishes the ability and passion to seek pleasure. It teaches the animal, does not let evolve the human being.
So the natural consequence:

No child exceeds the threshold of a school without being exposed to the risk of losing: I mean to lose this abundant life, hungry for knowledge and wonder that would be so exciting to feed, sterilize and make it instead of despair with the tedious work of abstract knowledge. What a terrible finding those looks so bright suddenly faded!

those who submitted those looks bright processed by the school looks bored, unmotivated, dull, worse, can not Do not desire the end of the school. The school is today as the biggest stupidity ever given birth by humans. Millions of children forced by government stupidity to waste hours and hours of life and perhaps the entire youth in school sterilissimo study.

's four walls. The general consensus decides that, with regard to hypocrites, we will be trapped there, forced, blamed, judged, honored, punished, humiliated, labeled, handled, fondled, raped, consulates, treated as abortions that begging help and assistance. What are you complaining about? will say the authors of laws and decrees. Is not the best way to start the novice to the immutable rules that govern the world and its existence? Without a doubt. But because young people are expected to have to settle for a society with no joy and no future, that they bear now resigned adults with un'acrimonia and a growing malaise?

A school where life is bored only teaches barbarism.

The avant-garde always struggle against the school that stifles life and individual autonomy against the school teacher authoritarianism and servility.
