Educating for citizenship or for freedom?

This paper intends to show the radical difference between the concepts of citizenship and human emancipation. We will try to demonstrate that the first is an essentially limited form of freedom because it is linked, inextricably, to sociability based on capital. The second is a form of limitless freedom that allows the possibility for mankind’s infinite self construction. Accordingly, this paper also intends to argue that educational activities that seek to contribute to the construction of free people should be related to human emancipation and not with citizenship.
