Abstract: The present contribution examines how the Western tradition of thought has pushed 'creative rationality' to one side and how rediscovering, that is to say, reintegrating this type of rationality provides a way of stimulating creativity and innovation. Exploring creative rationality has indeed great practical implications. It leads to promotion of a 'pedagogy of adventure'.
