Essay with reflections on social violence and its manifestations at school. It is a relationship that can never be neglected, because education also contains the social tendencies that reproduce violence, aggressiveness, and barbarism. Based on texts by authors from the Frankfurt School, the theme of violence is discussed, highlighting its links with the social and economic system, which is reproduced exactly by promoting the destruction of people, cultures, and environment. Next, considerations are presented that show that such destructiveness affects the formation of subjectivities and the willingness of individuals to conform or resist this tendency. Finally, it discusses the historical possibility of concretizing the political dimension of education as a way of opposing and confronting the aggressiveness and violence inherent to advanced capitalist societies.

Palabras clave : Critical theory of society; Social violence; Education and resistance; Political education.
