THE EXPERIENCE THAT REVEALS

CULTURAL INDUSTRY AND SEMIFORMATION IN CHILD EDUCATION

Keywords: Education; cultural industry; semiformation; teacher training

Abstract

This text has the main objective to analyze and reflect on the images generated by the cultural industry and the semiformative process of early childhood teachers and early elementary school in the light of the Critical Theory of Society. The cultural industry evokes visualities that reveal the fragility in the ability of individuals to “read” images, consequently turning our gaze back to the territory of childhood education and the semiformative teaching process. The methodology, both theoretical and bibliographic, is based on the foundations of Theodor W. Adorno's Critical Theory of Society, Max Horkheimer and Walter Benjamin, first-generation thinkers at the Frankfurt School and other scholars of the theory. As a possibility of resistance, the essay points towards a formation based on experience as a human position against this state of barbarism, and on an art teaching that provokes critical reflections in the face of the diversity of images and stereotypes, in favor of the very being autonomous and free human.
