Abstract
HEREDIA-DUARTE, María Isabel. Pedagogy and History. Education as Time of the History. Pedagogía y Saberes [online]. 2020, n.52, pp.9-22. ISSN 0121-2494. https://doi.org/10.17227/pys.num52-10628.
From a historical-philosophical perspective, this article proposes a close nexus between pedagogy and history. Based on the author's PhD research, this work runs through the history of the future, correlating it with education, to demonstrate that, although what we call time is the link between past and future, is education as a possibility of human improvement what makes it possible. In this sense, education is the very future. Therefore, education would be an historical time organizer and not a minor correlate in modernity development. This position allows us to interrogate some truths that until now have been unquestionable. One of them is the intrinsic association between pedagogy and sociology, which has strengthened the belief that education is, par excellence, a "social fact". This sociological background has confined education in a "practice", which has caused, in part, its curtailment as a human project, besides society. Finally, there is a crisis in history as a crisis in education, because of the confinement in the present and the impossibility in formulating genuinely general purposes.
Keywords : history of education; philosophy of education; pedagogical practice; crisis of education.
