School and teaching are a place where tactics and strategy meet and not only authentic bonding occurs. 

In this talk, Roland will discuss the idea that those who reduce this simply as an evil are not aware of the civilising dimension of the school. Hence the meaning of exchange and deception for civilised society as well.
