RE: Philosophy 101, #7: What is Meta-Utopia?
Interesting idea with a meta-utopia. I never heard of it before. It does make sense though. It is much more likely that we can create a meta-utopia with many different utopias as part of it than just one utopia where everybody will be happy. We are so different that we need different utopias (or simply kill everyone that does not agree!)
Yes... Thank you for your comment! I think the principle is quite simple. If we would extend it to our educational system, we should allow different educational systems to co-exist and let people be free to choose which one they prefer. There's not one utopian educational system that fits everyone :)
Yes, the very foundation of such meta-utopia would be the freedom to choose. I do agree that this also could apply to the educational system. I am not in favor of completely deregulated education, but there should be a lot of freedom in what way each student reaches a basic national standard.
