Theoretical Reflection

La pedagogía liberadora de Paulo Freire, a despecho de su amplia divulgación, ni siempre es debidamente comprendida en sus conceptos fundamentales. Para comprender esta teoría en su potencial revolucionario es necesario ubicarla en su local y en su tiempo de nacimiento, un país latinoamericano en los años 50 y 60 del  siglo XX, Brasil. Un país como tantos otros ubicados en el “sur del mundo”, víctimas (y sujetos) del proceso colonizador, el cual es el contrapunto del proceso modernizador, como afirma el filósofo argentino Enrique Dussel. El artículo consiste en una reflexión teórica que objetiva situar el pensamiento educativo freireano en el contexto de la necesaria liberación, así como reflexionar sobre su contemporaneidad tras 50 años de su formulación, una vez que nos deparamos con los oprimidos del siglo XXI, razón por la cual aún esta teoría se hace actual. The liberating pedagogy of Paulo Freire, despite its wide dissemination, has not always been fully comprehended. To understand this theory in its revolutionary capacity, it is urgent to situate it where and when it was born, in a Latin American country, Brazil, during the 1950s and 1960s. As claimed by the Argentinian philosopher Enrique Dussel, Brazil, like many other countries situated in the “south of the world”, has been victim (and subject) of colonization processes which situate themselves on the antipodes of modernity. This article consists of a theoretical reflection that aims to situate the educational thought of Paulo Freire as a quest for liberation, while also seeking to reflect about its contemporary pertinence after 50 years of its first formulation, a pertinence based on the many forms of  oppression still operating in the 21st century.

O pensamento pedagógico de Paulo Freire, revelando ser a educação dialógica uma questão essencial para uma maior leitura crítica da realidade, continua inspirando pedagogos/as, filósofos/as e sociólogos/as da educação de diferentes contextos, como forma de responder aos questionamentos e desafios das realidades emergentes, nas dimensões educativa, política e social da práxis pedagógica. A atualização do seu pensamento inspira este artigo guiado pelo seguinte questionamento: Como, em um mundo multicultural, se revelam, de forma atualizada as ideias de Freire, tendo como arcabouço pedagógico e político o diálogo? A partir de fontes documental-bibliográficas, utilizando uma abordagem descritiva, o estudo realizou uma reflexão teórica sobre a reinterpretação do pensamento educativo de um dos pensadores mais citados em diferentes fontes de referência, no mundo na área das ciências humanas, no país e no exterior. No Brasil, as teorias baseadas no diálogo e na participação, oriundas de Paulo Freire, se por um lado se tornaram objeto de crítica e de perseguição; por outro, diante de uma situação de crise e de desalento, vem sendo adotadas e defendidas, com maior vigor, como uma vertente da inclusão e de democracia. Por fim, o artigo defende que a perspectiva pedagógica de Paulo Freire continua vigente, na busca de um mundo plural em que se demanda reconhecimento e autonomia.

Finalmente, el artículo defiende que la perspectiva pedagógica de Paulo Freire sigue vigente, en la búsqueda de un mundo plural en el que se exija reconocimiento y autonomía. Paulo Freire's pedagogical thought, which reveals that dialogical education is an essential issue for a greater critical reading of reality, continues to inspire pedagogues, philosophers and sociologists of education from different contexts, as a way of responding to the questions and challenges of emerging realities, in the educational, political and social dimensions of pedagogical praxis. The updating of his thinking inspires this article guided by the following question: How, in a multicultural world, are Freire's ideas revealed in an updated way, having dialogue as a pedagogical and political framework? Based on documentary-bibliographic sources and with a descriptive approach, the study made a theoretical reflection on the reinterpretation of the educational thought of one of the most cited thinkers in different reference sources, in the world of human sciences, in the country and abroad. In Brazil, the theories based on dialogue and participation, original to Paulo Freire, have become, on the one hand, the object of criticism and persecution; on the other hand, in the face of a situation of crisis and discouragement, they have been adopted and defended with greater vigor as an aspect of inclusion and democracy. Finally, the article argues that Paulo Freire's pedagogical perspective is still valid, in the search for a plural world in which recognition and autonomy are demanded.

RESUMOOs debates em educação necessitam cada vez mais de concepções pedagógicas que emanem do movimento de libertação das oprimidas e dos oprimidos, assim como apregoava o professor Paulo Freire. Isso significa que é preciso realizar o ato educacional na aproximação dos sentidos elaborados pelos sujeitos participantes das dinâmicas pedagógicas, respeitando e potencializando suas identidades no movimento de busca do ser mais no/com o mundo. É preciso sentir o cheiro daqueles/as que conosco participam da construção das aprendizagens, que devem ser instrumentos políticos que re/elaborem nossa presença no mundo. É nesse sentido que este artigo reflete teoricamente acerca da necessidade da construção de currículos que respeitem as identidades gays elaboradas fora e dentro da escola; construídas pelos corpos que, com seus gestos, inscrevem sua presença no mundo e com isso também suscitam políticas públicas para esses sujeitos.Palavras-chave: Currículo. Políticas Públicas. Gays.ABSTRACTDebates on education increasingly require pedagogical conceptions emanating from the liberation movement of the oppressed and oppressed, as Paulo Freire proclaimed. This means that it is necessary to carry out the educational act in the approximation of the senses elaborated by the subjects participating in the pedagogical dynamics, respecting and potentializing their identities in the search movement of being more in / with the world. It is necessary to feel the smell of those who participate with us in the construction of learning, which must be political instruments that re-elaborate our presence in the world. It is in this sense that this article is made as a theoretical reflection about the need to construct curricula that respect the gay identities elaborated outside and within the school; constructed by the bodies that with their gestures, inscribe their presence in the world and, with this, also raise of public policies for these subjects.Keywords: Curriculum.

As the editors note in their introduction to this special issue of the journal, for more than 500 years, indeed since the conquest, Latin-American economies and societies have been profoundly affected by developments in the world system. Over the past century alone, watershed moments such as the Great Depression of the 1930s and the oil shocks and international debt crisis of the 1970s and 80s, have rocked Latin-American economies, transforming development paradigms and with them the circumstances of the many millions who inhabit the region. Today, a quarter century has passed since Latin-American economies embarked, unevenly yet largely irreversibly, on the path of market-oriented reform. Designed to stimulate growth through insertion into global markets, structural adjustment programs swept Latin America in the wake of the debt crisis and were followed by a panoply of measures that sought an enduring restructuring of economies in the region. The pursuit of these so-called Washington Consensus policies did away with the inward-oriented strategies that had shaped development in the region throughout the postwar period. However reluctantly, Latin America staked its future on a renewed engagement with the world economy, and became a player in the highly contested processes of globalization that are reshaping societies and economies around much of the planet.

A Current

Although liberation theology may still be considered a “current event,” nevertheless, given its very evident and widespread impact on Latin American Christianity and elsewhere, it seems fairly safe to state that it is the most important theological movement which has emerged in Latin America in the four centuries since evangelization. Many authors would further contend that liberation theology symbolizes the coming of age of the Latin American church: from a peripheral, somewhat dormant and intellectually dependent church to one which actively contributes to Catholic and Protestant thought throughout the world. For this reason alone, without mentioning the many political ramifications of liberation theology, it merits attention as one of the key themes in Latin American church history. The aim of this article is threefold: to briefly outline the origins and development of liberation theology; to examine the different ecclesial, social and political factors which influenced its development, and finally, to indicate what direction liberation theology seems to be taking currently.

Not only efforts in liberating thought but also maturing oneself make it well accepted by the wider community and nation. The existence of alternatives or options per the thought input is formal but has breakthroughs, as in Freire's idea. Freire's critical alternative education model can be applied in Indonesia, which can be pursued in structural liberation, welfare, dialogue, and developing essential awareness. The importance of reviewing Mi'raj's book because it can be used material in the discourse on the development or renewal of thinking from the world of education in Indonesia.

Freirean Pedagogy

In Brazil and around the world, the ideas of Paulo Freire have impacted the field of environmental education, at least since the 1970s. It is possible to observe and associate the influence of Paulo Freire, when environmental education emphasizes the political dimension of any and all pedagogic activity, as he so emphatically stated. Another central aspect of Freirean influence relates in particular to the objective that environmental education should make “participation” possible, as advocated by the first documents produced and disseminated by UNESCO. Although the topic of environmentalism, in its best-known sense and definition of the protection of nature and natural resources, was not initially at the core of his pedagogical thinking, a strong concern with the theme can be seen traversing his work in the 1990s. In this sense, the international academic institutionalization of environmental education and the support that this pedagogic and political movement received after the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, held in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, was crucial for consolidation by means of public policies and projects elaborated by NGOs as well as by the theoretical production and curricular changes that took place in universities around the world, with different thematic priorities, theoretical and methodological focuses, and impact on the population and on the natural and social environment. Since 2009, especially in Brazil and other Latin American countries, dissertations and theses have leaned toward this production, identifying and analyzing the increase of Freirean pedagogy in connection with environmental education, defined as “the political education of citizens.” Political actions in everyday pedagogical practices for social and environmental justice, alongside various other rights (e.g., cultural), are urgent issues to address. The connections between environmental education and Freirean pedagogy have contemporized both, as they clarify the central arguments of Paulo Freire’s political and pedagogic thought, which reaffirmed throughout his extensive production that access to education is a universal right, and that it is by means of education (including the environmental dimension) that political processes for the construction of just, democratic, and sustainable societies are solidified.

Spiritual formation occurs in the routines of daily living. We are formed by choices made at the grocery store, as we reach for our medicine cabinet, as we consider whether to drive ten minutes or walk thirty. Such seemingly insignificant choices reflect assumptions held about who we are, and how we are supposed to live in the world. Spiritual formation, like notions of civic duty, develops from within a cultural context. Cultural environments give us largely unquestioned taken-for-granted assumptions about how the world is and how we should live in it. This essay explores three of the many Western 21st century assumptions (the autonomous self, eradicating pain, and overvaluing efficiency) that affect spiritual formation. Knowing how we are seeing a thing helps us better interpret what we are seeing and how it influences decisions we make. The hope is that in knowing, we can make choices with more intention, understanding that our decisions shape and form our soul.

Escritor, poeta, orador, catedrático, periodista, agente consular, estadista, crítico de arte y de literatura, José Martí (1853-1895) es al mismo tiempo el patriota que organizó las bases para la independencia de Cuba en las postrimerías del siglo XIX. Su crítica de arte, que él llamó “ejerciciodel criterio”, no fue examinada sino hasta mediados del siglo XX, pues el apremio por conferirle a Cuba una identidad nacional hizo que brillara por mucho únicamente su genio político. Juzgó la obra de artistas latinoamericanos, norteamericanos y europeos, y fue el primero en calificar como arte la producción espiritual de “nuestra América” antigua. Su visión de la realidad artística latinoamericana se articuló dentro de una concepción general que buscó reconfigurar el objeto de la estética reinante con la finalidad de incorporar en ella las creaciones de todos los pueblos del mundo. Las siguientes páginas, que forman parte de un trabajo mayor sobre el pensamiento estético de Martí, abordan brevemente la recepción de su crítica de arte en el siglo XX latinoamericano.Palabras clave: José Martí, crítica de arte, ejercicio del criterio, siglo XX latinoamericano.   AbstractWriter, poet, speaker, professor, journalist, consular agent, statesman, art and literature critic, José Martí (1853-1895) is at the same time the patriot who organized the basis for the independence of Cuba in the late nineteenth century. His art criticism, which he called "exercise of the criterion", was not examined until the mid-twentieth century, because the pressure to confer a national identity on Cuba made his political genius shine by far. He judged the work of Latin American, North American and European artists, and was the first to qualify as art the spiritual production of our “ancient America". His vision of the Latin American artistic reality was articulated within a general conception that sought to reconfigure the object of the prevailing aesthetic with the purpose of incorporating in it the creations of all the peoples of the world. The following pages, which are part of a larger work on Martí's aesthetic thinking, briefly address the reception of his art criticism in the Latin American XX century.  Keywords: José Martí, art critic, exercise of the criterion, Latin American XX century.

Abstract: Criticism and alternative education offered by Paulo Freire is very interesting to be used to analyze the problems of education in Indonesia. It must be admitted that the context behind the controversial issue of those educational thought is different from that of Indonesian, however, it must be very suitable. According to Paulo Freire, there should be no dichotomy between the goals of education and educational ways. The goal, the transformation that frees individual to be a real person, should be manifested in the extent to how education must be implemented. The purpose of exemption cannot be separated with the path that frees. In addition, Freire's educational theory remains significant in terms of its role in which education should bring up not only the understanding of the world, but also the transformation of the world. On the other hands, Indonesian national leaders, Ki Hajar Dewantara also has inherited a very important philosophy in our national education, that is ing ngarso sung tulodo, ing madyo mangun karso, tut wuri handayani which means that the front is setting as a good model, the middle is inspiring and in the back provides support.
