Course Content (Syllabus)
The course examines the historical evolution of the formation of the field of adult education from the postwar period to today as a social, ideological, pedagogical and state practice internationally with an emphasis on developed capitalist countries and Greece. The study of adult education in Greece is directly linked to its international development and evolution and is in each period constituted by the dynamic interaction of the broader economic, political and social processes and associations. There are four thematic units corresponding to equal historical study periods: 1) Postwar period to regime change period, 2) Regime change period and accession to the EEC to 1991, 3) The Maastricht Treaty 1992 to 2000 and 4) The Treaty of Lisbon 2000 until today. Each unit provides an overview of the most important socio-political events and developments that shape and define the policies, institutions and formation of adult education as an academic and professional field and as a driving force for social movements. The effects of these changes on the content and use of the concept (and other identical and/or related concepts) as well as on the co-formulation of pedagogical theories and practices in the field are also studied.
