The new “avant-garde pedagogy” resolutely rejects the traditional humanistic ideal of a “harmoniously developed personality”, abandons education based on the historical continuity of cultural tradition and devotes its efforts to the absurd self-expression of the “alienated personality”, conjuring the forces of alienation in a mystified struggle against them.
