• Abstract:

  Education is a political fact that reveals interests and tendencies; from philosophy and pedagogy the implications underlying it have been unraveled and criticized, in a sense of individual and social order-control, from the culture and formation historically speaking. In view of this, the idea and possibility of an education that contributes to liberation, requires changing the ways in which it has been taking place at present; it allows reflection to transcend those ways of how the world and society are conceived in the evolution of humanity; listening to its demands.  The contributions of Enrique Dussel and Paulo Freire, around an education thought from the ethics of liberation, is a different perspective where listening to others is vindicated and in this proposal, to guide thinking about how to promote life and its reproduction. It is also a critique of neo-liberal education that regulates and transmits educational forms to the interests of the neo-liberal system, where what matters is to increase the rate of profit and compete with others to expand spaces. The reflection that is made from the ethics of liberation, is that the subjects can prioritize a world where for any action, life is always encouraged towards a praxis of liberation.
