Focusing on the concept of philia, or love, this book explores its significance in democratic citizenship education within university settings. The authors advocate for educational encounters that foster humanity, emphasizing virtues that promote autonomous and responsible engagement. By shifting the discourse from purely rational interactions to include emotive aspects, the book aims to deepen understanding of how love can enhance human relations and enrich the educational experience, moving beyond traditional notions of citizenship and pedagogy.
