GUELMAN, Anahí  and  PALUMBO, María Mercedes. The Construction of Decolonizing Pedagogies: Notes from Work Praxis in Social Organizations. Rev. colomb. educ. [online]. 2019, n.76, pp.33-49. ISSN 0120-3916.  https://doi.org/10.17227/rce.num76-5929.

The starting point of this article is the statements and reflections made in the qualitative research work carried out in productive entrepreneurships created on self-management and cooperative basis in a social organization in Argentina. A series of tentative notes are presented regarding the characteristics that, as a result of the field work conducted and the dialogue with research precedents, are fundamental in the conceptualization of decolonizing pedagogies. As proposed in the article, thinking about decolonizing pedagogies implies approaching the status of knowledge and other-epistemic subjects, the potentiality of labor as an educational principle, the placement of pedagogy within everyday life and community, the openness to affective realm and, finally, the collective framework. The reflections on these five aspects seek to contribute to the problematization and discussion regarding pedagogy, moving away from colonial education.

Keywords : labor; praxis; social organizations; entrepreneurship.
