| Summary: | This book, 'La degradación educativa' by Romina De Luca, explores the historical process of educational degradation in Argentina. It examines how capitalist social relations have influenced the decline in educational quality provided to workers. The author argues that education has become a tool for maintaining social order and hierarchy, catering to the needs of the bourgeoisie while neglecting the broader developmental potential of individuals. The book critiques the role of various political ideologies and governments in perpetuating this decline, emphasizing the school system's function as a mechanism for ideological reproduction. It also discusses how the school system serves as a socializing agent, imposing rituals and routines that reflect capitalist values. De Luca challenges readers to reconsider the societal role of education and envisions an alternative system that prioritizes human potential over capitalist demands.
