As concepções de Mundo e de Pessoa de Paulo Freire: Pequenos fragmentos

Abstract

This article presents the conceptions of Person and World identified in Paulo Freire. It aims to expose them in a reflexive way, recognizing them as fundamental in the dialogical and dialectical confrontation of the dehumanization process that the current society goes through. The theoretical-methodological framework is of a qualitative nature, its sources of bibliographic research constitute seven books by Freire and as for the method, we chose the critical-dialectical conception. Regarding Freire’s conceptions, we can reiterate that ethics is indispensable in the construction of Person’s relationship with the World, allowing him/her to question his/her own condition in the World and overcome it. It also recognizes that the human being is a historical and social being, with an ontological vocation to be more and who has in his praxis the possibility of making culture, since he approachesorganically doing and reflecting on what he is doing. To this end, he believes that just anger can be an element of problematization of his life and from it Man produces knowledge, remembering that Freire does not separate right thinking, lightness and goodness from the process of knowledge construction. Finally, we support Freire’s contemporaneity and the need to return to his ideas.
