Abstract

This essay examines the role of educational philosophy in fostering world peace, engaging historical and contemporary debates. While thinkers from Plato to Noddings argue that philosophy cultivates political virtues and ethical life, critics like Arendt and Rorty question its political efficacy. Drawing on Marxist and decolonial perspectives, the essay explores the limits of philosophical discourse detached from material struggles. It then critiques the transformation of testimonio from a genre of resistance literature to an academic research tool, arguing that this shift depoliticizes its original purpose. Instead, the essay calls for a return to testimonio as urgent evidence of injustice, particularly in the ongoing crisis in Gaza. By embracing immanent critique and resisting ideological co-optation, philosophers of education can contribute to peace through critical engagement with global struggles.
