Philosophy as an Educative Cultural Practice

Abstract

The question of what is philosophy? It has been answered in many ways throughout history, as has also been answered in many ways the question of what do we call culture? However, little has been said about the relation- ship between philosophy and culture, ie of philosophy as a cultural activity of thought. Philosophy must overcome academicism where he was cloistered , overcoming the institutional, breaking the walls that enclose and establish a connection to the culture that not only has departed , but which no longer seems to be part again knowing that is precisely this connection to the culture that makes a thought can be considered as philosophical, or not.
