RESENDE, Maria do Rosário Silva  y  ROURE, Susie Amâncio Gonçalves de. Cultural and moral formation: a critique of reason. Rev. Inter Ação [online]. 2012, vol.37, n.1, pp.147-159. ISSN 0101-7136.  https://doi.org/10.5216/ia.v37i1.18876.

This paper set out to reflect on the relationship between morality, reason and emancipation in contemporary society. It is mainly interested in confronting the idea of morality with the urgency of a critique of reason in the sense of searching for enlightenment and autonomy, using the Critical Theory of the Frankfurt School as a reference. It is understood that discussing the perspective of ethics in a society based on modernity is an essential step towards understanding the possibilities of a formation process which leads to overcoming the intellectual and moral heteronomy of contemporary man.

Palabras clave : Formation; Morality; Critique of Reason; Emancipation; Autonomy.
