RESUMO

This research aimed at the building up of popular education in Brazil. Based on Doimo (1995) we defined the field as a gathering of meanings, values, symbols and political projects, all indicators of common socialization, shared by groups and political agents, in this case, by popular educators. The scope of this research considered the framing of popular education through the study and defining of the three different approaches constructed along the last 40 years in Brazil. By this we understand the shared building up of historical projects and of an educational know-how, fairly agreed upon by educators, expressed in language, values, ideas and key-words. These are formed and are followed up by constant conflict between a minimum of background storage, which unifies the field, and permanent struggles within this field, which enhance, diversify, rename and allows for the blooming of diverse discourse. The first of these repertoires to be analyzed was limited within the 1960 1964 period, identified with the popular cultural and educational movements. We therefore highlight popular educational experiences and practices considered as part of an individual field, initiated in the first half of the 1960 decade. Documents produced by these movements and published material on this theme, outlined the repertoire centered on the debate between nationalism or national consciousness. The second repertoire, throughout the 1970 1980 decade, is the organic relationship between popular education, popular movements and Basic Ecclesiastical Communities. Values and elements hereby mentioned are self explained along proper path undertaken in the setting up of popular organizations the furthering of political instruments of the working classes. Two political instruments, unequal by nature, significantly changed the field of popular education: the founding of the Workers Party (PT) and the surging of back up committees for popular education. Documents and studies related to the theme were then used. In the early 1990s, landmark for the construction of present repertoire, change started to take place in popular education, Known as refounding of popular education, a revisionist movement of previous practices and concepts. In the last and present researched repertoire, based on interviews with popular educators, documents and papers, we point out an acceptance of discursive elements identified with those of the Third Track, currently appropriated by the popular education field. This takes place in the acceptance of militant NGOs practices, along with local businesses and city governments, namely of the Workers Party
