CRISTI, Miguel Antonio Ahumada. Affectivity, gender and care. Contributions to the area of Education. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2024, vol.29, e290053.  Epub 22-Maio-2024. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782024290053.

In different historical periods, reason and affectivity — as the locus of emotions — were understood as different and independent things. Emotions were understood as hindering intellectual development. It was even thought that emotional activity predominates in women and rational activity in men. And this brought serious consequences for education. However, from the 20th century, especially, scientific concern for the affective structure of being, together with the incipient ethics of care, began to support a theory that complements and interconnects reason and affectivity. The objective of this article is to justify an education where cognitive and affective structures are conceived as inseparable concepts and equally important for human formation.
