A presente obra foi construída tanto por acadêmicos da disciplina Teoria Crítica da Sociedade, do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação – PPGE da PUC Goiás, no segundo semestre de 2022, ministrada pela Prof.a Dr.a Estelamaris Brant Scarel, como também pela contribuição de outros intelectuais frankfurtianos. Nesse sentido, os seus textos contêm sínteses de vários debates e tensionamentos sobre a realidade educacional contemporânea, que resultaram, à luz da Teoria Crítica frankfurtiana, na necessidade de se repensar a educação numa perspectiva mais democrática e emancipatória. Por isso, é uma obra que reúne objetos diversos tendo como farol essa teoria que, diante dos extremismos ocorridos no século 20, não desconsidera que o totalitarismo continua à espreita, requerendo uma formação capaz de resistir ao capital e à indústria cultural, em prol da humanização e da democracia. Afinal, Auschwitz não poderá se repetir! Esse é o seu apelo.

A Escola de Frankfurt, através de sua crítica da sociedade, constitui uma das mais importantes fontes de teorização crítica em educação. E este livro faz um mapeamento cognitivo dessa tradição, caracterizando com precisão a natureza do pensamento educacional crítico, descrevendo suas diversas vertentes, traçando genealogias e filiações, suas convergências e divergências, contradições e posições.

This book presents the history and theoretical contributions of Brazilian geography since the late twentieth century and shows how this sphere of knowledge has been organically integrated with social and territorial issues and with social movements. The relationship between the subjects and objects of research in Brazilian geography has been centred on the understanding and transformation of realities marked by injustice and inequality. Against this backdrop, the geography of the country has developed by integrating, relating to, and forming part of those realities as it headed out into the streets. Brazilian geography continues to hold theoretical debate in high regard as a result of the influence of critical theory. This book thus covers the theoretical approaches in Brazilian geography, its different lines of research, and above all its character as manifested in culture and society.
