人は生まれつき腐敗するのか？| Pedro Karam | TEDxEscola Concept Ribeirão Preto

リベイラン・プレットにあるEscola Conceptの8年生、Pedro Karamが、人は生まれつき腐敗しているのか、それとも時間をかけて学ぶのかを問いかけます。彼は腐敗を、権力や立場、影響力を私的利益のために乱用することと定義し、テストでのカンニングなど日常の小さな習慣にも現れると述べています。講演では、模擬国連での経験と、120人の生徒を対象にした調査に触れています。アルバート・バンデューラの社会的学習理論と結びつけ、誠実さも学ぶことができると結論づけています。

In this TEDx presentation, Pedro Karam reflects on the nature of corruption and questions whether human beings are born corrupt or learn these behaviors throughout life. The speaker defines corruption as the misuse of power, position, or leverage for personal gain. He shares his experience at the Model United Nations simulation (Concept MUN), where he represented the Democratic Republic of the Congo and recognized the impact of corrupt systems. Based on this, he emphasizes that corruption is not limited to large-scale financial fraud, but also manifests in small daily habits, such as cheating on tests or taking shortcuts. Pedro presents a survey conducted with 120 students from his school, in which 112 agreed that growing up in a specific environment shapes individual views and reactions toward corruption. Drawing on psychologist Albert Bandura's Social Learning Theory, he explains that human behavior is strongly influenced by observing and imitating those around us, which can lead to the normalization of unethical actions. He concludes that humans are not born corrupt, but are highly capable of becoming so; however, if corruption can be learned, integrity can be learned as well, starting with questioning our daily habits Grade 8 student at Escola Concept Ribeirão Preto This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
