Critical Pedagogies and Latin American Psychology: Dialogues for a Pedagogy From the Global South

Abstract

The following work investigates the different modalities that colonial-capitalism expresses in the region and how colonial power is re-articulated through certain discourses, policies and strategies in the educational system, reproducing colonial modalities of subjectivation and responding to a glance of the world, sustained by the geopolitics of knowledge. An approach to the contributions on the coloniality of power and the coloniality of knowledge by Aníbal Quijano, the Liberating Education of Paulo Freire, Critical Pedagogies and Latin American Psychology, re-signified and re-thought in the light of the various popular movements, indigenous, feminists, peasants, among others, allow us to advance in the design of critical, popular and intercultural pedagogies from the global south.
