Conhecimento, Educa o, Sociedade

In this article, which is part of a broader research, we discuss the relationship between Science vs. Education, once one of the greatest challenges of the modern world is to educate societies scientifically. We hypothesize that Science, or rather, a certain concept of science is a crucial tool for the civilization of the XXI century, in which a discursive memory (re)modernizes: that of “lack of”, “incapable of”, “it is hard to” in relation to the general population towards the understanding of science, to be (since always) filled by formal and non-formal education, and that there is a minority which dominates this knowledge, a minority who shall change the world (but not the core of the world) when they succeed in giving to all what they lack.
