A crítica do método marxiano à racionalidade burguesa e à educação tecnicista

Abstract

Exercising the materialist interpretation of historical development and the dialectical view of social transformations, the Marxian method remains the most adequate theoretical tool for the critical understanding of the contradictions of bourgeois social reality, although seen by many in a marginalized and / or outdated way. Marx is linked, in fact, to a revolutionary project of society and, in view of the historical complexity of this project, the criticism of the production of technical and scientific knowledge, as well as education as a biased project for social transformation, requires a delicate treatment: of analysis about the bases of social production of the current institutions and capitalist ways of life. Therefore, we propose to explain the evidence regarding the assertion and the relevance of this method: as the one that best enables the understanding of the contradictions of bourgeois social reality, in view of the explanation of their ideological commitments in the production of technical-scientific knowledge and in the vituperation of the working classes’ education.
