Curative Education and Social Therapy
The impact of Karl Koenig's curative education and its importance for today's call for social inclusion.
Overview
Karl König's basic work on curative education and social therapy has already been published in the Werkausgabe. Volumes on specific issues of diagnostics are in preparation. Since the Camphill movement has a special position in King's life's work, there is a separate section "Camphill movement", in which also related topics appear.
Other aspects, which have their focus in a different area, but are still important for work in special education and social therapy, are in Medzin and medical anthropology (therapeutic work, development of language and movement); in general anthroposophy (sense development) and in pedagogy and psychology (about the child development and the psychic life).
