Perspective and Education

By learning of the not immediately perceivable factors that condition one's Perspective, one can enlarge it, via a displacement of the focal point, with the previous focal point, and its causes, now objects of perception.  Among the methodical ways of such learning are Psychoanalysis, for revealing personal formative factors, and a Liberal Arts education, for discovering some of the general influences, e. g. ethnic prejudices that are deeply entrenched in one's society.  Included in those general influences, according to Marxism, are Economic conditions, e. g. the fragmentation that breeds Egoism.  So, for example, the routine denigration of a Liberal Arts education, on the grounds that it is 'impractical', is, according to Marxist analysis, a product of Capitalist conditioning for two reasons--it has no inherent market value, and it is a potential threat to undermining that conditioning, i. e. by facilitating the enlarging of one's Perspective that exposes that otherwise latent conditioning.
