SCOCUGLIA, Afonso Celso. Paulo Freire’s curricular reflections . Rev. Lusófona de Educação [online]. 2005, n.6, pp.81-92. ISSN 1645-7250.

This paper aims to grasp the relationships involving knowledge, learning and the curriculum within Paulo Freire’s political-pedagogical thought. To achieve that, guiding questions of his intervention will be dealt with, particularly those revealing curricular reflections about processes of knowledge, problem-posing education, the move from candour to criticism which signals awareness, the educator’s training, the working classes’ right to knowledge, school management and autonomy. These reflections evidence the strength and opportunity of Freire’s pedagogical contributions and legacy as a counterpoint to a more and more ‘top-to-bottom’ standardised and hegemonic education.
