Özet

This paper focuses on a private primary school, which encourages values of individualism, entrepreneurialism and creativity, and stands in contrast to the state system promoting conformity and obedience. Based on real life experiences and practices on the ground, a discussion on different models of personhood underlying different educational practices forms a key part of the paper and I also discuss the extent to which participants of the school vacillated between different perceptions of personhood. In a broader interdisciplinary context, I will provide a clear example of the way in which anthropology can contribute to educational sciences, and highlight the interrelation between the two disciplines.
