La cura dell’infanzia nel pensiero di Janusz KorczaK

Abstract

This work tries to reflect on how Korczak's pedagogical vision offers interesting ideas for society to understand the centrality of early age in the growth process, entrusting childhood with the power to recognize one's needs and the right to express them. His pedagogy focused on universal values and a profound ethical sensitivity presupposes a vision of the child as a 'complete' human being, who has the ability to establish a re lationship of mutual respect with adults based on love and dialogue.
