Abstract:
Based on the interpretations of the philosophers Jürgen Habermas and Axel Honneth of the intersubjective model of the socially constructed self, as shown by G. H. Mead, we defend the need to include the concepts of intersubjectivity, struggle for recognition and democracy within a conception of education that, based on cooperative and communitarian thought, teaches democratic action - which will be orientated toward a consensual resolution of problems and based on an intersubjective recognition among individuals.
