Fundamentos filosóficos e antropológicos da..Fundamentos filosóficos y antropológicos de la teoría del Sich-bewegen y la formación de sujetos emancipados, autónomos y críticos: El ejemplo del currículo de educación física en el estado de São Paulo

Abstract

This article examines philosophical and anthropological underpinnings of the Sich-Bewegen Theory, based on the phenomenological philosophy by Merleau-Ponty and social anthropology by Mauss and Geertz. It also considers implications for Physical Education Elementary and High School curricula aimed at forming emancipated, autonomous and critical individuals, taking the Physical Education Curriculum of the State of São Paulo as example. It concludes that the curriculum needs to imbricate into students’ social life and take into account the challenges and issues from contemporary society.
