A problemática da reforma do ensino da filosofia em Angola

Abstract

This work is a logical result of the discussions that took place in 1991 in the context of the formation of the new political mentality in Angola. The discussions discussed above continued in the academy based on the reflections entitled “Process of reforming the teaching of Philosophy in Angola: some epistemological and methodical aspects”, and as a response, the article by Professor Muanamoni Matumona “The teaching of Philosophy in Angola” appeared. It was an imperative need to develop reforms in the teaching of philosophy due to the spirit of social changes existing in the country. This meant the restructuring and construction of a new model and paradigm of education and teaching, in which Philosophy was integrated. Our analysis focuses on understanding the reform process at three crucial moments: The teaching of philosophy in the post-colonial era and the current moment. With this simple theoretical contribution, we take as our main reference the intention of interacting, implicitly, two issues that title it: epistemology and methodology, without losing sight of the accentuated treatment of the theoretical foundations of the teaching and study of philosophy in Angola.
