Método de conhecimento de Paulo Freire e suas aplicações na região de Jundiaí-SP (1986-2016)

Abstract

This article aims to promote a reflection on Paulo Freire's method of knowledge, commonly identified as a method of adult literacy, initially applied in Angicos and in several cities in northeastern Brazil, in different and concomitant experiences. As a way of historically demonstrating that the developments and applications of the method were not restricted to politically favorable environments, some practices and inspirations developed in the region of Jundiaí-SP, between the mid-1980s and the beginning of the 2010s, will be pointed out. practices developed by pastoral agents of the Catholic Church, by educators and political agents, which indicate that in cities with a predominantly conservative historical profile there are possibilities, resistances and mechanisms to escape the ideological controls perpetrated by hegemonic groups and that humanizing pedagogical experiences flourish even in these contexts adverse.
