The ontology of learning, or teaching the non-person to learn

• In this article we explore some consequences of present day obsession with “learning” and how such obsession seems to make perfect sense for an education exclusively aiming at making a living in a neo-liberal economy. Instead of celebrating the economical aspects of learning, we highlight the importance of building democratic capacities in an ever changing world by taking education back to the public. The perspectives offered in this article are to be considered as theoretical and critical contributions to the discussion about current educational circumstances, in which discourses of learning seem to dominate the entire field of education.
