- Title
Didier Eribon: Porträt eines Bildungsaufsteigers.

- Abstract
Contrary to the more common reception in German-speaking regions, we do not understand Didier Eribon's ‘Returning to Reims' primarily as a contribution towards understanding conditions that facilitate the emergence of right-wing populist movements and parties. Instead, we propose to benefit from reading his return to his childhood and adolescence in regards to the philosophy of education. When Eribon turns to the proletarian milieu of his background and traces the different feelings of shame associated with it, he provides insights into the world of experience of social climbers, who are usually highly ambivalent about educational institutions. It is therefore the personal memories, the insights into the family, the circle of friends and the school, which are of particular interest for the philosophy of education. In this way, Eribon makes an important contribution to the elucidation of social practices by which educational institutions are involved in the reproduction of social inequality.
