COELHO, Allan da Silva e MALAFATTI, Fernanda. Paulo Freire and the Christian liberation: contribution of the concept of social worldview. Práxis Educativa [online]. 2021, vol.16, e2116638. Epub 20-Out-2021. ISSN 1809-4309. https://doi.org/10.5212/praxeduc.v.16.16638.029.
The possibility of relating Paulo Freire’s pedagogical theory, especially his work Pedagogy of the oppressed, with Liberation Theology in Latin America, from the category of social worldview, as a concept of a certain tradition of Marxism that runs from Lucien Goldmann to Michael Löwy, is studied. In this proposal, understanding Christian liberation, not only as a social movement but also as a bearer of a given social worldview, allowed to understand Paulo Freire’s work as part of a social group that constitutes a complete and coherent significant totality, with explicit characteristics. The approach of this study had an interdisciplinary character, which associated Philosophy of Education, Sociology and Religious Studies. Inspired by the methodology of the Sociology of Knowledge, it is proposed that Freire’s biography only confirms some elements of his shared ethical-critical options, which can be deepened with subversive potential.
