Abstract

The Rural Education, as part of a counter-hegemonic project of society, goes beyond its school version by fighting against the capitalist logic. Its proposal incorporates political, social, and cultural dimensions, in addition to the pedagogical dimension. This article discusses three of these dimensions: epistemological, sociological and formative, and their articulations. In its epistemological dimension, the Rural Education challenges the capitalist exploitation of science; on the sociological level, it opposes the exclusion of culture and knowledge of the rural people covertly imposed by the dominant class; and from the formative point of view, it promotes the work as an educational principle. It supports the right of rural people to think and to define education from their place, their culture and their needs.
