O artigo visa partir da filosofia dos valores de Nietzsche para pensar a educação desde a consideração de que a avaliação dos valores é fundamental para concepções e conteúdos educacionais. A exposição principia pela discussão com Thomas E. Hart e seu livro Nietzsche, cultura and education (Nietzsche, cultura e educação), visando apresentar aproximações e distanciamentos com a análise empreendida; e, posteriormente, propõe investigar a relação entre educação e filosofia dos valores, desde suas perspectivas e consequências.

Due to the importance of the theory of values, elaborated by Max Scheler, this article aims to describe the essence and originality of the moral foundation, showing the absolute nature inherent to it, to erect an ethics of absolute moral values. This done, we will find, in fact, axiological foundations capable of showing the principles that permeate and make the basis of people's ethical and moral life full of value and meaning, within the responsive and responsible causality of their actions and decisions that emanate from this human capacity and, that is latent in its essence.

In this article we intend to analyze the relationship between science and values from the philosophy of Hans Jonas. It starts with an analysis of the change identified by the author with regard to the new status of knowledge in modernity, which gives rise to the so-called technobioscience, born from the articulation between knowing and doing, in view of a new power. It is about showing how the old formulation of knowledge as contemplation gave way to the utilitarian idea of knowledge as exploration, although in such a version, the claim of neutrality and absolute freedom is maintained, characteristic of the old moral island represented by knowledge pre-modern. Jonas argues in favor of an articulation of technobioscience with ethics, in order to provide the values capable of guiding knowing, doing and power in technological civilization.

One of David Sassoli's most outstanding initiatives was the Conference on the Future of Europe, concluded in 2022, which aimed to promote the European construction based on the voices of citizens. Given the Europe's historical relevance in the development of science and technology and my own European experience, I comment on this Sassoli's "political testament", highlighting three major challenges for Europe and arguing that, in addition to science and technology, the future of the European Union must be based on the values ​​he espoused.

Western values have been expanded to Asia. However, this Western expansion leads to a problem when we look at the concept of West. The expansion of the West to the Indic & Pacific Oceans, whereas it formerly comprised just the North Atlantic region, demands that we create a new concept with the analytical capacity to capture this enlarged Western world. As a matter of fact, Barack Obama speaks about a "Global System of Democracies." This democratic global system is a new political West, that goes well beyond the old West, geographically confined to the North Atlantic. Adapted from the source document.

The project of European unity has oscillated between dream and disillusion. Its future will depend on its ability to know how to think and interpret Europe's Historical lessons, particularly since the end of the nineteenth-century, keeping in mind its remote cultural roots and the values of freedom and solidarity that survived the hecatombs it went through. Thus, increasingly seeking social justice, Europe will be able to come closer to the values that, in a broad sense, characterize its identity, not shutting upon itself, but rather opening to the world, without losing its autonomy and its inventiveness.
