SOUSA, Carlos Alberto Lopes de. “Professor, quero ser oprimida!”: situação-limite e atos-limites no habitus professoral. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2012, vol.18, n.37, pp.529-550. ISSN 1981-0431.

The goal of this article is to present and discuss an event occurred in a higher education environment, when a student, having studied Pedagogy of the Oppressed (Paulo Freire), explicitly demands to be oppressed by the professor. The episode, recorded in field notes, is analyzed from the perspective of the concepts of limit-situations and untested feasibility, both by Paulo Freire (1992), and Bourdieu’s (1983) concept of habitus. The concept of habitus is employed in the text in a heuristic perspective, being expanded and qualified as professorial habitus, as defined in Silva (2003). The text concludes that Freire’s thought should be adopted as a utopia sustained by the professorial habitus, expressing the negation of the fugacious or of fleeting dissatisfaction and associated with a collective movement for overcoming the state of things and dehumanized conditions of existence.

Palavras-chave : Professorial Habitus; Bourdieu; Paulo Freire; Untested Feasibility; Utopia.
