| Summary: | This short text wants to be a post face for the issue of the journal Recherches en education which deals with representations of science (or sciences) in teaching. It delivers a sociological statement declined in three parts. It first proposes to return to some aspects highlighted by the authors of some articles published in this issue. It then deals with the UNESCO's project to build a "world culture of education" and the place that has been given to "Western science". Finally, looking back at recent projects and the work of international organizations (United Nations and UNESCO) dealing with education, this text aims to highlight the gradual shift in the project from building a "global culture of education" supported by science to that of producing, by the school, a man responsible for his own trajectory and able to build his own opinion.
