PAULO FREIRE EDUCATORE INTERCULTURALE
Keywords:
Intercultural education, Education of oppressed people.Abstract
This essay does suggest an intercultural interpretation of educational care and thought of Paulo Freire. His educational thought, that originated in Brazil, a place marked by an inter ‑trans ‑cultural history, offers the possibility to analyze and to reflex about an educational research that will unmask new forms of (cultural) oppression and (political) inequality. Education of oppressed people prompts the postcolonial education and contributes to realize a research that will study new forms of colonial mentality in this era of globalization.References
