The First International Conference of the journal Scuola democratica, hosted by the University of Cagliari from June 5 to 8, 2019, brought together researchers, policymakers, and educators from around the world to address the challenges of education in the era of post-democracy.
In a context marked by the rise of new authoritarianisms, populisms, racisms, and nationalisms, the conference explored how education can counter these trends and promote an inclusive democratic culture.
Participants tackled crucial topics such as the impact of neoliberalism on education policies, the spread of technocratic governance systems, and the cultural and economic inequalities that threaten equitable access to education.

The Second Edition of the International Conference of the journal Scuola democratica was dedicated to the needs and perspectives of “reinventing” education.
The challenges posed by the contemporary world have long demanded a rethinking of educational concepts, policies, and practices. Questions about education “for what” (for what), “how” (how), and “for whom” (for whom) have become unavoidable, yet they have largely remained elusive due to a persistent attachment to ideas and routines from the past, which are now far removed from the radical transformations that educational systems require.
The Conference therefore placed at its core scenarios, reflections, and practices that foster opportunities for change and the reinvention of the educational field, understood as a driver of broader and global transformations.

The Third Edition of the International Conference of the journal Scuola democratica was dedicated to the issue of education and/for social justice.
The theme of social justice is crucial today. This is evident in the economic instability spreading from one country to another, wars and the resulting energy crises, the climate emergency and the need for a new economic policy oriented towards a sustainable ecological model, migrations and nationalist protectionist reactions, protests by women and young people in many parts of the world, and many other pressing challenges.
Educational processes—in their broadest sense, encompassing schools, universities, and training, addressing both young people and adults—are not separate from these challenges. Poverty and educational inequalities have always been both a cause and a consequence of social, cultural, and territorial disparities. In this sense, the Conference fostered a collective reflection on the goals, stakes, obstacles, and future perspectives of education.

The Fourth International Conference of the journal Scuola Democratica is devoted to examining the vital interplay between learning and democracy—two essential pillars for building societies that are just, inclusive, and sustainable.
The theme Learning for Democracy/Democracy for Learning not only reaffirms the enduring significance of democratic values but also calls for their critical rethinking and their concrete realization in everyday educational and social practices. In a global landscape marked by democratic backsliding, widening inequalities, and accelerated digital transformation, it has become imperative to reconsider how education and democracy can be reconnected to cultivate conscious, critical, and actively engaged citizens.
The Conference brings together Italian and international scholars and researchers in a broad, multidisciplinary conversation aimed at reimagining education and training as instruments of emancipation and as living practices of democratic citizenship—rooted in the present, yet responsibly oriented toward the future.
