Abstract

ABICAIL, Carlos Augusto. Human rights and citizenship: education as a field of conflict. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2002, n.19, pp.138-147. ISSN 1413-2478.

The text broaches education from the viewpoint of  that some observers have called the inauguration of the new millennium, marked by those events which took place in the United States and, consequently, rekindled the global debate concerning the parameters of human conviviality. Its developments, especially in the media, demand that educators reflect urgently on the need to surpass a vision of education based only on information and on the diffusion of knowledge, as though knowledge and information were not imbued with values. It conceives educational as an ample process which is present in work, in the popular and trade union movements, in political parties and in the school system. The broad concept situates our reflection beyond that of mere schooling and confronts us with challenges and replies in various aspects.

Keywords : Education; Human Rights; Citizenship.
