BARBOSA, Renata Peres and BUENO, Sinésio Ferraz. Notes on the field of curriculum studies: critical and post-critical controversies. J. Pol. Educ-s [online]. 2019, vol.13, e66890. Epub July 18, 2022. ISSN 1981-1969. https://doi.org/10.5380/jpe.v13i0.66890.
This article aims to stress the debate about post-critical thinking in the field of curriculum, problematizing and situating the limits and controversies of the field as a relevant theoretical subsidy for the analysis of fundamentals and curricular policies. In order to do so, in the first moment, a brief history of curriculum studies is presented as a field of contention, which outlines the bases for a formative project that supports the school experiences. Afterwards, it is sought to present, in a general way, the post-critical debate and its articulation with the curricular theories from national field surveys. Finally, the implications of adopting a post-critical perspective are analyzed, seeking to reflect on education and curriculum before the hegemonic framework of post-critical thinking. As conclusive aspects, we infer that the skeptical stance adopted by post-critical approaches seems to ambush a pedagogical trap, which further impedes the appropriation of formative objective contents in a critical way, nullifying the potentialities of resistance to reification. This is a bibliographic study.
