Negativ opdragelse og negation af opdragelse. Émiles aktualitet i forhold til en kritisk teori om pædagogik

Rousseau's exposition of negative education in Emile is explored through its relation to the concept of a negative theory of education developed by the author as a continuation of some crucial insights of early critical theory. Thus, the essay elaborates different aspects of negation and negativity in relation to educational theory and practice. The author defends thereby the actuality of Rousseau's philosophy of education for a critical understanding of the modern phenomenon of educationalization.
