Some sought the preservation and consolidation of their territorial integrity and their power. Others sou...

Com as transformações rápidas e constantes que ocorrem nas sociedades, torna-se incerto determinar que aptidões devem ser ensinadas hoje às crianças e aos estudantes universitários. A dificuldade em decidir reside em saber que profissões e funções deixarão de existir e quais surgirão. As competências que eram valorizadas há séculos poderão ser facilmente automatizadas (Harari, 2024). Assim, Harari (2024) sugere...
