SILVA, Cesar Augusto Alves da. Experiência moderna e as dificuldades para a educação formal. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2013, vol.18, n.55, pp.1035-1052. ISSN 1413-2478.

This paper aims to reflect on the narrowing and standardization of the formation of human beings through the framework conceptualized as “experience”. Drawing on these reflections, it examines the influence of the new constitution of this context on the perception and acceptance of formal primary and secondary education by individuals. This reflection stems from the ideas developed by Walter Benjamin about this human possibility. He realized that reducing the space for autonomous development of acts and activities that constitute the experience occurred at the time of the emergence and expansion of the capitalist mode of production. In addition, Benjamin argues that this new form of production of life destroyed entire paths of the tradition that humans trod to develop their skills, sensitivities and perceptions that today would be fundamental to the teaching and learning relationship.

Keywords : Experience; Mode of Production; Capitalism.
