Nietzsche's dispute with socrates and its effects on education

Abstract

The article focuses on Nietzsche's philosophy of antagonisms to seek its formative repercussions considering art, science and education. The agonistic model present in Nietzsche's work is taken as the defining factor for assessing the subtleties of philosophical clashes, especially the dispute with Socrates. In the dispute dynamics, the power of praise, criticism and also self-criticism. This philosophical soil connects with the pedagogical soil, giving rise to methods of analysis and practice that configure a possible agonic education. In these terms, the educational dispute rescues vitality through the genealogical method that aims to discuss invention, discovery, explanation and interpretation considering the arrangement of concepts to contest their ontological immutability and generate new guidance in epistemological terms. Be willing to think with Nietzsche, without necessarily abandoning Socrates, would imply reflecting on how the excess of fixity brought about by our pedagogical inventions has prevented more robust discoveries to make another education happen. It will be necessary, before all, to question the value of the truth that still reigns among us in order to bring the Nietzschean project of transvaluing all values ​​to its final consequences.
