Philosophy of education at Brazil in the xxth century: criticism concepts

Abstract

In this paper is proposed to establish a map about the constitution of the Philosophy of Education’s disciplinary field at Brazil, especially between the decades 1970 to 2000. After this, proposes to rethink Philosophy of Education, starting from Deleuze and Guattari’s notion of Philosophy, as an activity of creation of concepts. This paper criticizes some Brazilian understandings of Philosophy of Education as a “reflection about educational problems” or as one of the “Education’s foundations”. Its conclusion appoints to a creative Philosophy of Education that exercises the creation of concepts.
