Publisher Description: An anthropological analysis of education, this book is the first to examine the root cause of contemporary pedagogical systems from a truly comparative and interdisciplinary perspective. This confluence of ethology and anthropology reveals that the very category "human" is a requirement of civilization contingent on domestication and submission to structural violence at the root of civilized pedagogical practices. |
