6atrever-se a uma escrita infantil: a infância como abrigo e refúgioChildhood and Philosophy 17 (17): 1-30. 2021.The present text is a childlike exercise in writing. In responding to an invitation to write an adult, academic text, we the authors found that the presence of a child's standpoint acted to change the expressions that were to be elucidated, and that the project that adult writing represents was suspended by the creative force of childhood. "Philosophy for children" became "children for philosophy"; "moral education" became "the end (of) morality" and "conceptions of childhood" became the "c…Read more

4Inf'ncia, Filosofia e PólisRevista Sul-Americana de Filosofia E Educação 24 335-344. 2016.Exagerando uma certa tensão existente entre Sócrates e Platão em Diálogos como Apologia de Sócrates, Górgias e A República, este artigo busca pensar uma oposição mais profunda entre duas políticas da educação da infância em nome da filosofia: como conhecimento verdadeiro do bom e do belo (Platão), a filosofia aspira à conversão da infância; como forma de vida questionadora (Sócrates), ela abre um espaço de interrogação para escutar a infância. No artigo, mostramos como o programa Filosofia para …Read more

3Filosofía y niñezThe Paideia Archive: Twentieth World Congress of Philosophy 18 20-27. 1998.Percibimos órdenes dominantes y, a la vez, grietas o discontinuidades en ese mismo orden. Valores, saberes y prácticas imperan en nuestra experiencia al mismo tiempo que fisuras de ese imperio engendran asombros, dudas, moestias. De estos sentimientos se nutre el cuestionamiento y la investigación filosóficos, un intento, al fin, por superar la inmovilidad de aquellos órdenes imperantes. En efecto, la filosofía, en tanto tarea crítica, cuestiona los valores, ideas y creencias que permean las prá…Read more

3A Latin American Project to do Philosophy with ChildrenProceedings of the XXIII World Congress of Philosophy 43 83-88. 2018.In this paper I introduce some of the main theoretical principles of an educational and philosophical project that is still very much alive and in process.

Public School Bets on Thinking is housed in two public schools in the city of Duque de Caxias, a suburb of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, that may be characterized as an urban poverty zone.

Plato On Children and ChildhoodChildhood and Philosophy 1 (1): 11-32. 2005.In this paper, we present a compendium of excerpts of Plato´s dialogues on childhood. We have collected the major references to children and childhood through Plato’s opus, and divided them between those categorizations of children which can be as small as phrases which use “child” as an example of a certain kind of disposition or character; and those passages which deal with the education of children. Of course the two books in which Plato speaks most of children and childhood—Laws and The Repu…Read more
