LORENZATTI, Maria del Carmen. Literacy processes in young people and adults: convergence of institutions and actors. Perspectiva [online]. 2014, vol.32, n.1, pp.39-62. ISSN 0102-5473.  https://doi.org/10.5007/2175-795X.2014v32n1p39.

The aim of this article is the analysis of literacy practices in the process carried on by a woman with no schooling. The purpose is to discuss, from the perspective of the recent literacy studies, that these practices belong to wider social processes where individual knowledge about the written culture are interlaced with the requirements of the institutions in relation to reading, writing and power relations. It is a socio-anthropological study, with an ethnographic kind. The focus is set on the comprehension of the relationship of the different scales of local and global contexts in order to prove that the literacy practices cannot be considered in an abstract way dissociated from its historical, political, economic, social and cultural conditions. This study intends to provide knowledge to rethink the teaching practice with young people and adults.
