PERSPECTIVES OF A PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION IN JOHN DEWEY

KEY WORDS:

BIG AREA: Ciências Humanas
AREA: Educação
SUMMARY:

Philosophy has been considered throughout the ages as an erudite knowledge, full of
conceptual subtleties, viewed with strangeness by many people. The desire of those who take
on the challenge of studying it is to demonstrate its relevance in the midst of reality as the
construction of a consistent argument, as a reaction to authoritarianism, as the capacity to not
accept previously determined data, and, finally, as the capacity to go beyond the horizon. This
paper seeks to situate John Dewey's contributions in the line of these restless thinkers,
demonstrating that, imbued with a social and political project, he breaks away from cultural
stereotypes to affirm the importance of reflection, autonomy, and freedom through the
association of the concepts of philosophy, education, and democracy. To better explain this
theory, the paper initially seeks to situate Dewey's historical and cultural origins, as well as
the currents of thought that influenced him. Next, it develops his understanding of education
based on his democratic and pragmatic orientation, to finally develop his philosophical project
for a society under construction based on the overcoming of dualisms, on the contribution of
reflexive action, as a critique of scientific reasonableness, and on the strengthening of the
democratic process.
