Peter Sellars on the next stage for education

‘Everything that urgently needs to be done, has no money, no budget. If you think education is expensive, see how expensive it is to have no education.’

Peter Sellars urgently addresses intellectuals on how they should transform their theoretical discourse - that is impenetrable to the public - into a language that is within the reach of the majority of citizens. Discuss the complexity of our educational system, of our social system, of our economical thinking, in terms that are simple, so that we can have an open public dialogue. This will lead to new structures of equality.
