Philosophy and Children Special Edition
15.08.2010

The third issue of the special edition of Philosophy and Children was published by the “Philosophy and Children Research Department” of the Sadra Islamic Philosophy Research Institute under the management of Zohreh Hosseini and supervision of Professor Seyyed Muhammed Khamenei, the President of the Institute.
In the
editorial of this issue, by reference to the necessity
of paying attention to the philosophical and spiritual
training of children in society, Zohreh Hosseini writes:
If we
understand the significance of this point and start
training our dearest children following the scientific
methods which are used in research by authorities in the
field of philosophy and children, perhaps in the future
we will not witness any credulity, superficial
judgments, and vulnerability to the propaganda of
foreign media on the part of the young generation
anymore. In this way, by training a reflective and
logical generation, we will be able to guarantee the
security and development of our society.
At the end,
the writer emphasizes that she expects the authorities
in the field of culture to modify and correct the
cultural affairs in society far from any kind of tight
theoretical points of view, unhealthy competitions, and
political considerations.
