The ongoing transformation of society influences and pushes educational institutions to innovate and adapt. This does not necessarily have positive repercussions on the improvement of educational models. New problems and needs arise that require a new type of research, reflection and action. The idea behind my contribution is anchored in decades of experience. This is exactly what I will try to explain without periphrasis: philosophy (and not just the philosophy of education) is no longer interesting today because it seems neither understandable nor useful. Among the various scholars interested in a new perspective, Ikeda creates a truly new, but exquisitely genuine approach. This approach starts from wonder, not from theory, from amazement, from emotion, from everything that is located in the person and it does not need to be translated into a distorting language.
