Educação em Direitos Humanos frente à ascensão de elementos totalitários

Abstract

The present work intends to analyze, from the political-philosophical reflections of Hannah Arendt, the formative dimensions of education in human rights in the face of the rise of totalitarian elements, arising from the crisis of the modern world, represented to a large extent by the misfortune bequeathed by the totalitarian regimes that occurred in the 20th century. Subsequently, an attempt is made to emerge, according to Arendt's perspective, another foundation of education in human rights, beyond the normative framework, with the task of understanding it as a new perspective, assuring that the binding promise of the protection of human dignity resides in everyone's responsibility for the common world, based on human plurality.
