As teorizações críticas na educação ambiental da anped: Tensionamentos e produções discursivas do GT 22

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the philosophical and epistemological foundations of Environmental Education based on critical theories. The empirical material of this study is composed of 26 papers published in the annals of the ANPEd WG 22, from the 26th Scientific Meeting, held in 2003, to the 37th, held in the year 2015. Is used from Theoretical and methodological tools documents viewed as monuments and discursive formation, present in the work of Michel Foucault. It is understood, therefore, that the selected works produce part of the discursive formation that constitutes Environmental Education as a field of knowledge. With the analysis it was verified the recurrence of three enunciative axes: interdisciplinarity, emancipation and transformation. With the approaches of each one of the conceptuations the strong correlation between the three axes was perceived to locate the objectives and problematizations that the Environmental Education can permeate.
