The interchanging of educational and cultural values is probably the unique
utensil we have, to build a new horizon of love and respect, in a
harmonious and peaceful global village. Education is not a mere training,
but a solid construction of a particular concept of humanity. Culture of
this era overvalues success. We are greatly satisfied when we see our
children grow up and reach their own financial independence. This is a good
thing, but sometimes we expect from them only convenient triumphs and
forget other developments, as a truth seeking thought in association with a
sensitive heart. On the other side, children that live in poverty are
rescued by education, because it is capable to take them from a sorrowful
future of delinquency, prostitution, illness, vagrancy and drugs. Education
in this sense can be a resourceful instrument to achieve an actualized
morality, in the very long but passionate travel to Peace. We must include
the permanent education or education of the adult, into peace education.
Maria Montessori said, "The life of the populations depends on peace and
perhaps progress or extinction of the entire civilization" and strongly
promoted the objective of Peace in Educational sciences. Psychology teaches
us that hostility is a key element in human relationship. In comparison to
animals, we find that they are not disposed to antagonistic initiative if
their instinct does not instruct them on an immediate forthcoming danger.
Our destructive side is more virulent, somewhere installed in our brains.
We are dangerous to Nature and to different species, specially our own. We
must understand that education must be redirected towards self-discipline
and not only towards "self-esteem" as nowadays-enthusiastic theories
sustain

Although in past times education was synonymous of instruction and
restricted to the formation of youngsters and children by adults, education
is much more than that. We may start with the definition by Littré "
Education is the group of manual and intellectual habits that are
accomplished, and the moral qualities that are developed." For him,
education is an art more than a science. Aldus Huxley has said that the
objective of education is "the guidance of young human beings towards
freedom, justice and peace."We conclude that education is the development
of physical and intellectual habits, willpower, emotional intelligence, and
moral intelligence (moral judgment and feelings).Education endures all life
and its objective is the personalization and progressive humanization of
the human being. During last years, humanity has developed immense growth
in technical aspects and practical sciences. Paradoxically, philosophy is
only sustaining weak advances and modifications which are uniquely trying,
without any success, to justify and be at the side of rushing changes at
daily news referred to human life, in general. Philosophy of Education is
not out of this situation. Harmonious peace is in a severe danger. A total
disaster is winning the career where the looser will be not the Theorists
of Education but the next generation who is not receiving any chance to be
formed in good way. The sophistication of practical sciences advances is
not being accompanied by a well-designed educational basis, worldwide.
Modern thinkers on Education must join efforts, abandoning any care about
their individual fame, seeking after harmonious peace for the entire human
community, under strong moral principles where their science must be firmly
set.  First and foremost, we need to make a correct diagnosis about the
weak points and the correspondent necessities of the youngest generations.
We may establish some objectives as areas to be developed in children’s mind
