BRANDAO, Carlos Rodrigues. WHO SERVES EDUCATION?. Revista da FAEEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.56, pp.12-32.  Epub Oct 14, 2020. ISSN 2358-0194.  https://doi.org/10.21879/faeeba2358-0194.2019.v28.n56.p12-32.

From some civilizations and using different conceptual traditions, this article is a reflection on Education. It recovers and summarizes ideas present in other texts by the same author about the participation of education in the process of social transformation and its relationship with democracy and power. Through various questions about the role of educational processes in different societies, we seek to inquire about the different practices of education, thought and lived, either as a functional instrumentalization of those who learn only by “instructing”, through a training aimed at adapting to “real world of the market”, is an education practiced as integral formation with a view to the transformation of the learner through an unfinished sharing of knowledge destined for self, alter and sociotransformation.

Keywords : Education; Anthropology; Popular education; Transformation.
