I was reading this text about a ‘second trial’ of Socrates, as the author calls the replacement of education with training in our times. 

The author of the text doesn’t fail to see that it was this education, not our current scientific-technological training, that produced the colonial arrogance and even the two world wars and the well known hyper-barbaric atrocities. 

Then, why and how can we attack the modern training-education, if the previous one, that would be rightly called education proper, has already failed even more? Neither education, nor training seem to be our problem; perhaps we suffer from a different disease.
