CUNHA, Marcus Vinicius da. A antinomia do pensamento pedagógico: o delicado equilíbrio entre indivíduo e sociedade. Rev. Fac. Educ. [online]. 1993, vol.19, n.2, pp.189-204. ISSN 0102-2555.

This article places pedagogical ideas between, on one hand, the ideal of respect for the individual and on the other, social necessities. It analyses John Dewey’s thinking as being a balancing factor between these potentially opposite tendencies. The contribution made by measurement Psychology and by Sociology to Education are considered as indicators of the tendency to value demands of society over individual liberty.

Palabras clave : John Dewey; Educational Psychology; Educational Sociology; Psychological Tests; Brazilian Education.
