Abstract

The text addresses the challenges that are currently present for the construction of democracy in education. It is pointed out the need to seek two dispositions so that democracy can be lived: that there is a repositioning, that is, that the world must always be seen from the perspective of the dispossessed; and that the world should be seen in a relational way, that is, to seek to analyze and understand the relations of power and the contradictions that structure institutions and societies. The article ends by emphasizing that the constant struggle for the experience of democracy in education is what keeps subjects vigilant against narratives that point to conservative perspectives as inevitable.
