INTRODUCTION DERMEVAL SAVIANI’S MARXIST CONCEPTIONS OF HISTORICAL-CRITICAL PEDAGOGY IN RELATION TO KNOWLEDGE THEMES: CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE CURRICULUM. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2018, vol.34, e186783.  Epub Sep 20, 2018. ISSN 1982-6621.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-4698186783.

This article brings to light the contributions of the Brazilian educator Dermeval Saviani to the curriculum’s field. To do so, we did a bibliographical research, rescuing Saviani’s Marxist principles in his work, articulating them to the curriculum’s field against the background of knowledge theme. The paper also uses Saviani commentators to present a more complete and diverse analysis. Rescuing Saviani’s contributions to the curriculum is important at a time when the field moves away from the knowledge theme (MOREIRA, 2001, 2002, 2007, 2010, 2012) by prioritizing articulations with the culture under a sharply post-structuralist bias. Thus, the conceptions of Dermeval Saviani remain current and controversial to the field, because they defend a conception of knowledge that embraces principles of universality and prioritizes the curriculum’s necessity as a vector of transmission of knowledge considered as patrimony of humanity.

Keywords : Curriculum; Dermeval Saviani; Knowledge.
