Wie verlernen wir Gehorsam?

In the organizer's words:

What does it mean to grow up in a system that is designed to produce obedience? How do we unlearn obedience? brings together works that examine the influence of state control in German public schools and dare to think education beyond discipline and subjugation.

El-Qalqili and Öztat draw on a German literary canon that has been practicing obedience as a virtue since the 19th century, was ideologically intensified in Nazi pedagogy and continues to have an impact in classrooms today in a modified form. They trace the profound influence of the culture of obedience: its mechanisms of punishment, surveillance and control and what they demand of those who are subjected to them.

El-Qalqili's School of Disobedience invites young people to participate and unfolds through contributions by Rheim Alkadhi, Zeina Azouqah, Leila Boukarim, Nevin Duran, Frauen machen Druck, Veronika Gerhard and Nahed Samour. A zine provides insight into the research process and questions educational logics that normalize state violence and criminalization.
