Alla luce dei più recenti avvenimenti storico-politici e delle conseguenti sfide educative della tardo-modernità, pare urgente tornare a riflettere su alcune essenziali tematiche, quali la persona e il bene comune. Il presente contributo intende proporre alcune considerazioni pratiche e teoretiche sull’agire democratico, avanzate, nel corso del Novecento, da due pensatori complementari nella loro differenza: John Dewey e Romano Guardini. È soprattutto dal dialogo fra gli scritti Democracy and Education dell’americano e la raccolta Scritti Politici del secondo, che emerge con evidenza l’importanza di ripartire dall’essenza della democrazia per risignificare i principi democratici su cui fondare e a cui educare le comunità.

Abstract

Given the most recent historical-political events and the consequent educational challenges of late-modernity, it seems urgent to return to a reflection on some essential themes, such as the person and the common good. This contribution intends to propose some practical and theoretical considerations on democratic action, put forward, during the 20th century, by two thinkers who are complementary in their difference: John Dewey and Romano Guardini. It is above all from the dialogue between the American's Democracy and Education writings and the latter's collection Political Writings that the importance of starting again from the essence of democracy in order to redefine the democratic principles on which to base and to educate communities clearly emerges.
