«Hijos en libertad» is A. S. Neill's essay on education and child-rearing, published by Planeta-Agostini in hardcover (231 pages, in Spanish).
From Summerhill, A. S. Neill answers parents' common questions: jealousy, homework, sexuality, fears or divorce. His proposal distinguishes freedom, which ends where the child's rights begin, from license, which invades others' rights, and applies that distinction to daily life.
The work was originally published in English in 1966 under the title Freedom, Not License! This 1993 edition belongs to the collection Obras Maestras del Pensamiento Contemporáneo (no. 58).
For readers interested in pedagogy, child psychology and the philosophy of Summerhill.
Alexander Sutherland Neill was a Scottish educator and author known for his school, Summerhill, and its philosophy of freedom from adult coercion and community self-governance. Raised in Scotland, Neill taught at several schools before attending the University of Edinburgh in 1908–1912. He took two jobs in journalism before World War I, and taught at Gretna Green Village School in the second year of the war, writing his first book, A Dominie's Log (1915), as a diary of his life there as head teacher. He joined a Dresden school in 1921 and founded Summerhill on returning to England in 1924. Summerhill gained renown in the 1930s and then in the 1960s–1970s, due to progressive and counter-culture interest. Neill wrote 20 books. His top seller was the 1960 Summerhill, read widely in the free school movement from the 1960s.
