Abstract

Joel Spring’s proposal, for a human rights education and an education in human rights, based on the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights, assumes an autonomous, rational subject that is endowed with rights; which owns rights. We can think of two standpoints that are unsatisfied or offended by this construction of justice around individual humans: poststructuralists and deep ecologists. Inspired by Spring’s project, we have been considering a mindful education and an education in mindfulness as a “universally applicable” education that does not require a rational subject.
