And then the favorable responses from scholars of philosophy of education of Korea and other countries are shown in five respects. (e) Under the head of The Universe of the Theory and Practice of Foundationism', a diagram illustrating Foundationism from the methological point of view is presented and then the theoretical foundation of that diagram is provided under the title of Universality and Peculiarity of Pedagogy'. The instruction process of existing philosophy of education is shown and compared with the creation process of Foundationism. Being induced from such a firm theoretical background, the term Foundationism' has no relation with particular region, period, school or religion.
