Abstract/Notes: Il libro indaga un aspetto spesso trascurato e però centrale nella figura e nell'opera di Maria Montessori: l'afflato utopico. I contributi di apertura cercano di restituire un quadro d'insieme dell'«utopia montessoriana», mentre i saggi successivi esplorano, in modo attento, le diverse direzioni della riflessione della studiosa su tale terreno: la pace, l'antiautoritarismo, i diritti dell'infanzia, l'emancipazione femminile, l'ecologia cosmica, ecc. Si tratta di linee di riflessione preziose, tanto più a fronte dell'odierna tendenza a vedere l'educazione come un modo per coltivare le competenze necessarie alla crescita economica e all'inserimento nel mondo del lavoro e ― particolarmente per quando riguarda l'infanzia ― a considerare la scuola da un punto di vista neo-custodialista, come un parcheggio in cui i genitori possono lasciare tranquillamente i figli. Rispetto a questa deriva utilitarista, Maria Montessori propone, invece, una più elevata ambizione: costruire attraverso l'educazione l'«uomo nuovo» per un mondo nuovo. [The book investigates an often overlooked but central aspect in the figure and work of Maria Montessori: the utopian inspiration. The opening contributions try to restore an overall picture of the "Montessori utopia", while the following essays carefully explore the different directions of the scholar's reflection on this terrain: peace, anti-authoritarianism, the rights of childhood, women's emancipation, cosmic ecology, etc. These are precious lines of reflection, all the more so in the face of today's tendency to see education as a way to cultivate the skills necessary for economic growth and integration into the world of work and - particularly when it comes to childhood - to consider the school from a neo-custodial point of view, as a parking lot where parents can safely leave their children. Compared to this utilitarian drift, Maria Montessori instead proposes a higher ambition: to build the "new man" for a new world through education.]
