Abstract: This article explores the role of rationality as a foundational principle in education aimed at fostering peace and freedom. Drawing on the philosophical insights of Immanuel Kant and Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, the article discusses how rationality, understood as logical reasoning, ethical reflection, and principled decision-making, can shape individuals who contribute meaningfully to a harmonious and free society. The discussion highlights the differing approaches of Kant, who emphasizes individual autonomy and moral law, and Hegel, who focuses on communal integration and ethical life. The article also considers contemporary educational practices that embody these philosophical principles, suggesting practical applications for developing critical thinking, ethical reasoning, and social responsibility.
