BERRIO PENA, Arlex. Educate Against the Barbarity in Perspective of Theodor W. Adorno. Prax. filos. [online]. 2021, n.52, pp.13-44.  Epub Apr 13, 2021. ISSN 0120-4688.  https://doi.org/10.25100/pfilosofica.v0i52.10680.

Meditations on metaphysics in Negative Dialectics exposes the categories that Theodor W. Adorno proposes for a new idea of ​​philosophy, ethics and education, after Auschwitz. Specifically, we present a new way of studying and understanding the categories of reason systems that ends, according to the Frankfurter, with the experience of barbarism in the Nazi concentration camps. For Adorno, Auschwitz as a historical-social event, marks the way to review and propose a new direction towards the understanding of the human and any rational project. In this way, the human, after Auschwitz, prints new categories, objectives and goals to philosophy, ethics and education. In this sense, educate to avoid barbarism or against Auschwitz, in Adorno's reflection, the resignification and integration of words in the principle of identity, according to the model of sustainable rationality and based on western philosophy. For this reason, this reflection identifies and names these categories in the educational proposal of Adorno.

Keywords : Philosophy of Education; Barbarism; Critical Education; Education for Emancipation; Ethics.
