The item Critical Theory and Philosophy of Education has the Adornian´s thought as the central axis, as well as the concept on Formation (Bildung), Semiformation (Halbbildung) from the perspective of human emancipation. Yet the item Philosophy of Difference and Philosophy of Education is based on the Deleuzian`s thought and desconstructs the idea of emancipation from the conceptual changes in Education and Philosophy , and also presents their substitutes on the notions of creativity and micro universe. Another objective of this paper is to explain the positive aspects brought by the Philosophy of Education, guided by the Philosophy of Difference, which is not always well regarded by some scholars of the Critical Philosophy.
