Abstract

La actividad filantrópica de Barón Maurice de Hirsch está claramente signada por una característica distintiva: no proveer caridad sino intentar la rehabilitación económica de los beneficiarios. ¿Cómo propone lograrlo? Hirsch sugiere sistemáticamente que la educación y el entrenamiento profesional son la única forma de romper el círculo vicioso de la pobreza. En 1891, luego de descartar la posibilidad de mejorar la calidad de vida de los judíos en el Imperio Ruso mediante el establecimiento de un sistema educativo, en forma similar a lo que había realizado en otras sociedades, el Barón de Hirsch fundó la Jewish Colonization Association (J.C.A.) a través de la cual habría de conducir la inmigración de miles de personas desde el Imperio Ruso hacia nuestro país y su establecimiento en colonias agrícolas. Su norrmativa original confería a Hirsch total control sobre las actividades de la Asociación; por ello, este paper plantea la hipótesis que el accionar educativo de la Jewish en las colonias debería er en un todo consistente con la visión de Hirsch sobre la educación. Este paper demuestra históricamente que dicho supuesto describe adecuadamente la realidad pues, como señala en sus memorias Boris Garfunkel, “si bien a la Administración de la J.C.A. se le pueden censurar no pocas cosas, al mismo tiempo no faltan algunos motivos de alabanza. Entre ellos, sin dudas, el modo en que se encaró la educación de los hijos de los colonos.”
