Abstract:
This paper aims to offer, from a distinctly pedagogical perspective, an analysis of recent legislative changes concerning the admission of migrants in Italy. In particular, adopting critical pedagogy as its epistemological framework (Freire, 1970; Colicchi, 2009; Giroux, 2020), the study first explores the relationship between pedagogy and politics. Through this interpretative lens, it then examines Decree 1236, currently under discussion in the Senate. Starting from a perspective that goes beyond the concept of inclusion in its superficial and sterile form (Bianchi, & D’Antone, 2023), the paper seeks to investigate what a society communicates about itself through how it welcomes and cares for its most vulnerable individuals (Sayad, 2002; Dal Lago, 2004). By unravelling the deeply interrelated ethical, political, and pedagogical trajectories, this contribution ultimately proposes educational responsibility and objection as possible strategies for opposing inhumane or dehumanising situations (Biesta, 2023, p. 23).
