MAAR, Wolfgang Leo. Education at a time of networking or: what happened to autonomy?. Rev. Inter Ação [online]. 2014, vol.39, n.2, pp.329-353. ISSN 0101-7136.  https://doi.org/10.5216/ia.v39i2.31711.

This study set out to interpret the direction and possibilities for education according to the tendencies present under the conditions which Manuel Castells calls a network society. The analysis is based on contributions from Rousseau and Marx, especially on autonomy and society which gave rise to Adorno and Marcuse's critical theory of society. The practices of the financial networks were transferred to the social networks in the capitalism of the network society, without paying any attention to the differences between the timing of finances and that of human lives. Against this background, the study highlights the actuality of Adorno's education for contradiction and resistance as a critical educational process based on the experience of difference and contradiction. Such a process confronts, on the one hand, with agreed virtual practices developed in the existing network education and, on the other, alternative practices occurring in objective and qualitative social interactions.
