Twelve philosophical principles for education in Angola

The aim of this work is to reflect on the need for philosophy in education. The lecture is part of a series of works entitled: The ABC of philosophy for Angola which investigates the relevance of philosophy to the social and political life of Angolans. It shares the Socratic idea that a life away from philosophy is painful and harmful in the personal and social spheres. The work hopes that Angola will increasingly achieve an education that is backed by philosophy that is one that is capable of forming critical creative autonomous individuals who love the truth and put the common interest above all other interests. Angola wants to achieve an education that is a voice instead of an echo that is light instead of shadow. To this end we have used mainly qualitative research based on structuralist and functionalist methods. As a result of this work I hope to contribute to the validation of meritocracy competence the force of reason and law to the detriment of the reason of force the reason of authority and the lack of transparency that has long been felt in education and in our society in general.
