title: [Authority between discourse and consultation].
abstract: Since the turn of the century the practice of general upbringing has been shaken by a number of authority crises. In this field a new way is currently being paved in the comprehension of education in which the authoritative powers are limited to two directions: on one hand to discussion (discourse) between equal partners and on the other hand in counselling that neither binds nor obliges. Authority lies between discussion and counselling: it must materialize as a social, communicative and identity-promoting competent form of action.
