Abstract

Mario Mencarelli specifically dealt with the concept of permanent education in four of his works, spanning two decades (1964-1983). From the texts emerges the idea of permanent education as a pedagogical key-concept, referring to education not only as a social adaptation tool, but also and more than anything as an “integral” personal self-fulfillment tool. All educational subjects must be engaged in supporting this task, from the family and the ground school, to the work and free time environments, to the places of civic engagement.
