In its education project, Adorno points to the importance of protecting without stifling individual capacity of each human being, looking for a means to educate for the formation of groups is a positive thing and not a breeding ground of violence and barbarism. Thus, the objective education to alert people to the fight against barbarism, so that they realize the negative character of this reality and try to put it out.
