leisure education
Definición
- This is a term that has a number of meanings depending on who is using it. Aristotle said that ‘we educate ourselves so that we can make a noble use of our leisure’. From the perspective of this author leisure education signifies the circumstances of skholè, or what Bourdieu (1999: 1) referred to as ‘the free time, free from the urgencies of the world that allows a free and liberated relationship to those urgencies and the world’. More formally, leisure education might be defined as the act or process of acquiring knowledge, skills or experience for their own sake and in ways which will provide the sociability, personal pleasure, challenge and fulfilment usually associated with other leisure activities.
