Paulo Freire. Sus obras, las educaciones y las pedagogías emancipadoras en el siglo XXI. Cátedra Doctoral 15

Abstract

Derived from the Doctoral Chair “Paulo Freire, his works and his presence in education and emancipatory pedagogies in the 21st century”, this compilation is presented that brings together the texts of twelve authors, whose purpose is to highlight the importance of the educational work and the thought of Paulo Freire and his decisive influence in the field of education, pedagogy, didactics and critical thinking. It also highlights their intellectual contributions as inspirers of the Latin American current of popular education and the Anglo-Saxon perspective of critical pedagogy, as well as other emerging educations and pedagogies that are assumed to be emancipatory. Through a critical lens, the set of texts illuminates the depth and the breadth of Freire's influence, from his training and early experiences to his position on the global stage. The authors consistently present their vision of education as a tool for emancipation, dialogue and transformation. At the same time, Freire's legacy is contextualized within contemporary educational challenges, especially in Latin America, reaffirming the timelessness and relevance of his ideas.
