The present essay, moving from a definition of the concept of capabilities in terms of attitudes to ‘make possible’ – i.e., inner abilities of every person which, if adequately exploited, permit to operate in a free and responsible way within the society or the institution where he or she lives – aims at highlighting its strong pedagogical value. The definition of capabilities, though developed in economic contexts, exhibits pedagogical foundations inasmuch it emphasizes the centrality of the person as an actor free in his or her choices and thus responsible for his or her destiny.

Abstract

The present essay, moving from a definition of the concept of capabilities in terms of attitudes to ‘make possible’ – i.e., inner abilities of every person which, if adequately exploited, permit to operate in a free and responsible way within the society or the institution where he or she lives – aims at highlighting its strong pedagogical value. The definition of capabilities, though developed in economic contexts, exhibits pedagogical foundations inasmuch it emphasizes the centrality of the person as an actor free in his or her choices and thus responsible for his or her destiny.
