The invisible foundations

By Adrian Thano

Published in DITA

A nation that does not invest in education today will pay for the consequences tomorrow. Beautiful words from a book of quotes?

No, simple math: If education is not taken seriously today, tomorrow prisons, rehabilitation centers, awareness campaigns, and support structures will have to be built.

All more expensive and more painful than a good education.

Today, on the first day of a new school year, look where we are: murders, explosions, teenagers with knives in their bags, lazy youth who confuse success with false brilliance, domestic violence, arrogance on the streets.

And a new fornication – not just the old one in the body, but in the mind, in the ideals, in the soul.

We have left school behind, on the list of priorities. The roads, stadiums, facades, resorts that seem like they are for trouble-free places, may be necessary. But are they worth it when basic education is lacking?

Tomorrow, the wind will destroy the roads or stadiums, and lightning will strike the resorts.

The Prime Minister himself, who has a passion for good looks and skyscrapers, seems to be the first to suffer this reality. His nervousness with those who damage or pollute the jeweled stadiums and beaches where we are trying to be upper class is proof that his vision of luxury and grandeur, without a foundation of education and respect, is wrong and fruitless.

It is not enough to build concrete and glass, if we do not also build civilized people, who know how to appreciate and preserve what they have. At the end of the day, of the decade, of the century, the quality of a nation will not be measured by the height of the towers or the kilometers of asphalt.

It would be better to have fewer stadiums and more libraries; fewer resorts and more laboratories; fewer lights and ribbons for TV news, more dignity for the teacher.

The teacher is a missionary. Can you look for missionaries in a system that strongly rewards improvisation and mediocrity?

Today's parents are nostalgic for the teacher of the past. Restoring the seriousness of the "teacher of Enver's time" (not in ideology, but in dedication and moral authority) requires that the teacher not be a victim of the system, but its foundation.

It is a great irony of history that the majority of the political, institutional, and cultural elite that today curses communism is precisely the product of that regime's educational system.

Sons and daughters of the former communist elite, educated with rigor, discipline, and foundation, are today at the helm of institutions, parties, businesses, and universities. Not because they were privileged, but because education was serious and brutally equal for all. That system may have fallen, but its educational legacy has kept these people at the top.

Today, when education has become a business, diplomas a commodity, and schools a facade, the younger generations risk having no merit, no equality, no opportunity. And so, the wheel of injustice continues to turn.

Education is a national emergency.
