Abstract

AQUINO, Julio Groppa. Educational critique as refusal to pedagogical metaphysics. R. Educ. Públ. [online]. 2015, vol.24, n.56, pp.351-364. ISSN 2238-2097.  https://doi.org/10.2015/repub-v24n56maio.ago004.

Supported by some foucauldian ideas, this article aims to provide an analytical platform for educational critique today, especially with regard to the ambiguities of the democratic school project. Assuming that a strong metaphysical accent invests school practices, the text proposes an analytical confrontation with two prevalent forces ruling the educational present: one technocratic, another doctrinal; both seeking for the edification of a redemptive future. Then it focuses on the defense of misunderstanding as a principle for pedagogical action, taken as index not only of an ethos, but of an educational pathos.

Keywords : Educational Critique; Metaphysics; Misunderstandig; Michel Foucault..
