COELHO, Allan da Silva. Horizons of plausibility under the critical philosophy: between lights, horrors and victims. Rev. Reflex [online]. 2018, vol.26, n.3, pp.34-51.  Epub Sep 19, 2019. ISSN 1982-9949.  https://doi.org/10.17058/rea.v26i3.12470.

Modernity and capitalism consolidate a categorial framework that refers to the normality of life, the valid human way of being and its horizons of understanding. This process directs the symbols that permeate knowledge, with tacitly accepted meanings, conditioning thinking but remaining unthought. Neoliberalism radicalizes such a perspective by placing human life under threat. The “capitalism as religion” studies, especially as qualified by the DEI School, can collaborate with this theme already outlined in Education. Taking as reference the real and concrete victim, we investigated what type of contributions this sector can offer to the renewal of the Philosophy of Education, making plausibility criteria an ethical-educational problem in the face of capitalist modernity. The theoretical-bibliographic research, referenced by the comprehensive dialectic, allows to characterize and inventories possibilities of this categorical articulation

Keywords : Horizon of plausibility; Capitalism as religion; DEI School; Victims; Decolonial perspective.
