NARODOWSKI, Mariano  and  BOTTA, Mayra. The biggest disruption possible in the History of Modern Pedagogy: Ivan Illich. Pedagogía y Saberes [online]. 2017, n.46, pp.45-54. ISSN 0121-2494.

This paper studies Ivan Illich's pedagogical thinking on the becoming of modern pedagogy. First, it shows the international consensus in academic literature concerning educational institutions, and states the possibility of their contingency and substitution. The paper displays how Illich's texts constitute a transgression of the epistemic boundaries of modern pedagogy, expressing through the possibility of deschooling the ultimate level of disruption regarding pedagogical devices. Illich's proposals are analyzed under a prefigurative and nonhierarchical light, emphasizing the value of his ambitious and provocative hypotheses. Finally, it shows the Illichian strength and topicality regarding a future where modern schooling tends to be questioned.

Keywords : Ivan Illich; deschooling pedagogy; devices; Pansophia.
