ALMEIDA, Antônio Charles Santiago de; BASNIAK, Maria Ivete and VIDAL, Rafael Gemin. Education and Technology: perspectives for dialogues on education for emancipation. Ensino em Re-Vista [online]. 2022, vol.29, e059. Epub June 08, 2023. ISSN 1983-1730. https://doi.org/10.14393/er-v29a2022-59.
Based on Adorno (2010), Bourdieu (2014) and Vieira Pinto (2005), understanding that education, politics and technology have an almost symbiotic relationship, we established a theoretical discussion on how technologies, in this context, can contribute to political emancipation of individuals, who frequently do not have a cultural heritage. Bourdieu (2014) presents us with the impediments of ensuring an education that is fair for everyone, because for him, the school is the place of social inequality. On the other hand, Adorno (2010) shows us that we need to train for political emancipation, that is, to avoid daily barbarism. In this context of reproduction of dominant structures, as well as of forming critical participant individuals, according to Vieira Pinto (2005), we defend the thesis that the appropriation of technology can be configured as an instrument to overcome social inequalities and to shorten distances between cultural capitals.
