Fairy Tale or Dropout Nightmare
International Journal of Theology, Philosophy and
Science
The
11th issue of the International Journal of Theology, Philosophy, and Science
has just come out with half a dozen articles. Enjoy the free open-access
reading. Six articles, six authors and six topics from Stephen King (Fairy
Tale) to early school leaving, often seen as “dropout,” failure in the lack of motivation,
intellectual means, interest or simply the excessive boredom developing in the
students. But in our modern societies we may have something like 20% of social dropouts.
That’s a lot. They can of course get into a Fairy Tale with the king of horror about
the possibility to live with a universal income or some social welfare state,
as long as 80% of the society they live in are willing to pay for the 20% of
marginal dropouts and flunkies definitely seen as lazy bums. Those are the two
brackets of the issue and in-between a lot of goodies, like Christmas chocolates
on the coffee table in front of the TV broadcasting some Christmas tale about
some reformed Scrooge
