Education plays nowadays and important role in reflecting about the meaning of a set of disciplines. Why education and educational processes are central to the mediations across disciplines such as anthropology, philosophy, sociology, psychology and, of course, economics, politics, and even history, amongst many others? Would perhaps this growing interest and commitment to determine the foundations of the different disciplines lays in the assumption that education is in crisis? Is it that processes, means and ends are going through a critical tipping point that forces us to think and take a stand? In this paper I reflect on the meaning of education from the book Persona y educación. Reflexiones críticas sobre el sentido de la educación edited by Juan Carlos Mansur y Héctor Velázquez.
