PRVKY BYROKRACIE A LITERÁRNE VZDELÁVANIE (NA PRÍKLADE SLOVENSKÝCH PEDAGOGICKÝCH DOKUMENTOV)

Abstract

The author works with a sociological definition of bureaucracy as a form of rational management of big organizational units, specifically educational system. He observes expected model activity of a literary education participant in upper secondary education. He points to certain negative features of current model of literary education as a result of tension between two diverse functions of two social systems – literature and education. Findings are demonstrated on two examples: declared reading experience at school together with inhibiting experience by setting content and performance standards of education; reading nonfiction to “train“ reading literacy in its wide and pragmatic meaning.
