Abstract
The discussion of the response to the objective reality of education practice highlights the sequential relationship between Berger and Luckmann, Honneth and Hirschhorn. It has been shown so far that the theme of personal agency can be explored from the perspective of externalisation (social), self-respect (individual) and basic-assumption social defences (unconscious). The theme of the objective reality of education settings has been shown to be related to objectification (social), self-esteem (individual) and the social defence of organisational rituals (unconscious).
