A compreensão do homem e a produção do conhecimento: uma contribuição da Filosofia para a educação

Abstract

This work aims to clarify that, since its origins, Pedagogy is anthropological and epistemological bases that show a project of man and his relationship with knowledge, having, therefore, as a presupposition that the educational process is a historical and social production determined by conditions of production of society. To this end, the course of pedagogical thinking is recovered through the study of representatives of the classical, modern and contemporary periods, identifying in their proposals the vision of man and knowledge that education produced. In this sense, the fundamental bases of Pedagogy are characterized, showing that they are historically built, always translating an educational project determined by the social structure. Finally, we point out some perspectives that enable Pedagogy to respond to the new project of man that emerges from the social contradictions of the current context.
