With a focus on lifelong learning, this book examines the shifts
that UNESCO's educational concepts have undergone in reaction to
historical pressures and dilemmas since the founding of the
organization in 1945. The tensions between UNESCO's humanistic
worldview and the pressures placed on the organization have forced
UNESCO to depart from its utopian vision of lifelong learning,
while still claiming continuity. Elfert interprets the history of
lifelong learning in UNESCO as part of a much bigger story of a
struggle of ideologies between a humanistic-emancipatory and an
economistic-technocratic worldview. With a close study of UNESCO's
two education flagship reports, the Faure and Delors reports,
Elfert sheds light on the global impact of UNESCO's professed
humanistic goals and its shifting influence on lifelong learning
around the world.
