Secularism, Culture and Education

Abstract

The most basic feature of this age in which the Western paradigm dominates is being secular. Western world that firstly makes its own culture secularize makes also the other cultures secularize via education. Education under the guidance of Germany was both general and compulsory and the aim of it was to display this kind of secular human being. The prevalence of this kind of education system in islamic countries caused Muslim countries disconnect with their own cultures. Therefore, all countries, particularly Turkey, need a culture-based system of education. Otherwise, the system of child rearing that is good at knowledge and ability but bad at sense of belonging will continue.
