La relazione riprende e rielabora il pensiero del maestro Mario Lodi, focalizzandosi sull'impegno profuso alla realizzazione di una scuola democratica, pubblica e aperta a tutti, basata sui principi della Costituzione, dopo la Seconda Guerra Mondiale. In particolare, ci si sofferma sul ruolo politico che Lodi intravede nell'insegnante e nella scuola democratica che può diventare quell'ambiente in cui non si generano diseguaglianze, garantendo la partecipazione di tutti gli individui. In seguito, nell'attuare un confronto tra Lodi e don Milani, si analizzano le analogie e le molte differenze tra queste due figure che hanno lottato contro la vecchia scuola tradizionale, ponendo l'accento su alcuni aspetti paradossali e controversi che emergono da alcune affermazioni del prete di Barbiana, poiché oggi è spesso quel pedagogista a cui si riferiscono coloro che hanno attese democratiche nella scuola. Questi concetti vengono ripresi anche oggi nel mondo della scuola non cogliendo, però, che la realtà è cambiata e che sono necessari nuovi sviluppi. Infine, si tratta la situazione attuale a cui è giunta la scuola democratica, sollevando i problemi educativi a cui gli educatori sono chiamati a trovare delle soluzioni. Una scuola democratica, basata sui principi della Costituzione, è ancora non completamente realizzata, anzi, essa è minacciata da una teoria economica, il neoliberismo, la quale plasma la scuola piegandola ai fini del libero mercato, concependo l'uomo come mezzo per accumulazione di beni e ricchezza.

Abstract
The report takes up again and re-elaborates the thoughts of the teacher Mario Lodi, focusing on the commitment invested to the creation of a democratic and public school open to everybody, based on the principles of the Constitution after the Second World War. In particular, we focus on the political role that Lodi sees in the teacher and in democratic school which can become that environment in which inequalities are not generated and guarantor of collective participation. Subsequently, in carrying out a comparison between Lodi and Don Milani, the similarities and many differences between these two figures who fought against the old traditional school are analysed, placing emphasis on some paradoxical and controversial aspects that emerge from some of priest’s statements because, today, is the most important educator that is mentioned by people who still believe in democratic school. These concepts are also taken up again today in the world of school, without realizing, however, that reality has changed and that new developments are necessary. Finally, it deals with the current situation that democratic school has reached, raising the educational problems to which educators are called to find solutions. A democratic school, based on the principles of the Constitution, is still not fully realized, indeed, it is threatened by an economic theory, neoliberalism, which shapes the school by bending it to the ends of the free market, conceiving man as a means for the accumulation of goods and wealth.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
