MARTINS, Marcos Francisco. Práxis e “catarsis” como referências avaliativas das ações educacionais das ONG'S, dos sindicatos e dos partidos políticos. Avaliação (Campinas) [online]. 2011, vol.16, n.03, pp.533-558. ISSN 1414-4077.

This article refers to the evaluation of educational activities developed by NGO's, trade unions and political parties, which are understood as praxis capable of generating "catharsis" of different types. Referenced in basically three authors: Marx, Gramsci and Vázquez, the text begins by presenting some remarks on the concept of praxis and "catharsis", identifying afterwards education as a process at the same praxic and cathartic. This understanding of education, which recalls the concepts of "community praxis" and "social praxis", resulting in a double conclusive assertion, namely: first that the entire educational process results in some change, and second, that not all resulting transformation of education is able to change the structures and superstructures that characterize all social life.

Palavras-chave : Antonio Gramsci (1891-1937); Evaluation; Catharsis; Education; Praxis.
