Winners Take All
Anand Giridharadas
Elders can no longer claim to fully understand the experiences their children are having and will have. Education must not be what it has been. Our children are tomorrow's already. We must educate them openly, in the world, without pretension of profession. Their world will not be the one we have known; we must teach the teachers not to instill yesterday's knowledge, but to create spaces in which tomorrow's problems become visible.

My claim, in other words, is
that to identify a given process as an ‘exercise of power’, rather
than as a case of structural determination, is to assume that it is
in the exerciser’s or exercisers’ power to act differently. In the case of a
collective exercise of power, or the part of a group, or institu-
tion, etc., this is to imply that the members of the group or insti-
tution could have combined or organized to act differently.
