Education is better thougt of as an activity or social practice, from the individual praxis, whose main purpose is to help others become per-sons. The purpose of this paper is to offer a sold foundation for the na-tural human sociability, the social virtues, and the ideal of coopera-tion, three areas currently invoked by thinkers of greatly divergent points of view. This paper is written along the lines of the classics and follows the thought of Prof. Polo.
