The relation between liberty and necessity and educational fecundity: dialogues with the thinking of Antonio Gramsci and Paulo Freire
Abstract
This article deals with the concepts of liberty and necessity in the history of philosophy as relevant and recurrent subjects since the Greeks classics up to present time. It states that throughout the universal thought two general ways of facing the problem can be identifed: one that absolutizes one or the other pole of the relation, and another one that intends to articulate them dialectically. It is shown that both the Gramscian and the Freirean approaches are favorable to a disciplinary process that constitutes liberation; therefore, they are philosophies that articulate liberty and necessity in a dialectical manner.
Key words: liberty, necessity, dialectics, discipline.Downloads
