MUZZATTO, Egidiane Michelotto y SILVA, Luís Fernando Santos Corrêa da. Education for democratic citizenship: challenges, impasses and perspectives. Educação. Porto Alegre [online]. 2021, vol.44, n.1, e32656. Epub 20-Jul-2021. ISSN 1981-2582. https://doi.org/10.15448/1981-2582.2021.1.32656.
This article discuss the contemporary intersections between citizenship and democracy, especially regarding the role of education. The theoretical and conceptual debate about the challenges and impasses of citizenship and democracy in contemporary times is rescued, as well as the characteristics of a specific model of citizenship, called democratic citizenship. This model is based on three basis that should integrate the school curriculum: (a) critical thinking; (b) universal citizenship; and c) imaginative capacity. We understand that construction of democratic citizenship depends on a plural human formation that surpasses technical and economic utilitarianism. The importance of the presence of the humanities, philosophy and arts in the school curriculum arises from this need, due to critical and denaturalizing nature of these areas of knowledge.
