Resumen
En este artículo Rosa Bruno-Jofré y Jon Ingelmo Zaldívar examinan la crítica que el propio Iván Illich hace a La Sociedad Desescolarizada y la subsecuente revisión crítica a las instituciones educativas y a la comprensión de la educación, en el contexto tanto de su propio trayecto intelectual como del giro epistemológico que comenzó a tomar forma a principio de los 80. Bruno-Jofré y Zaldívar examinan cómo, con el tiempo, Illich reorientó su indagación hacia las raíces (origen) de las certezas modernas (como aquellas relacionadas con la educación) y exploró la manera en que los seres humanos son integrados en sistemas generados por esas “certezas”. Illich se implicó en un análisis histórico más que en proveer respuesta a problemas contemporáneos específicos, mientras mantuvo su interés por la relación entre pasado y presente.Con las metáforas de la palabra, la página y la pantalla identifica tres grandes mutaciones en el imaginario social occidental y la reconstrucción del ser individual. Bruno Jofré y Zaldívar sostienen que mientras sus escritos, entre los que se incluye La Sociedad Desescolarizada, tenían generalmente un carácter apofático, su crítica a la educación, principalmente a fines de los 80 y en los 90, se entrelaza con su análisis de la parábola del Buen Samaritano y su creencia en la modernidad como producto de una cristiandad corrompida.
In this article, Rosa Bruno-Jofré and Jon Igelmo Zaldívar examine Ivan Illich’s own critique of Deschooling Society, and his subsequent revised critique of educational institutions and understanding of education, within the context of both his personal intellectual journey and the general epistemological shift that started to take shape in the early 1980s. Bruno-Jofré and Zaldívar consider how, over time, Illich refocused his quest on examining the roots (origin) of modern certitudes (such as those related to education) and explored how human beings are integrated into the systems generated by those ‘‘certainties.’’ Illich engaged himself in historical analysis rather than providing responses to specific contemporary problems, while maintaining an interest in the relation between the present and the past. Under the metaphors of the word, the page, and the screen, he identified three great mutations in Western social imaginaries and the reconstruction of the individual self. Bruno-Jofré and Zaldívar argue that while his written work, including Deschooling Society, generally had an apophatic character, his critique of education, particularly in the late 1980s and 1990s, is intertwined with his analysis of the parable of the Good Samaritan and his belief that modernity is an outcome of corrupted Christianity.
