Educate is to create awareness - with knowledge , with values , with capacity for understanding . In this sense , the educational process is much broader than formal education call, which occurs within the school premises . To educate is to take the worlds understanding of himself , of intrerrelação between the two . It can be a real understanding , that captures the mechanisms that actually are produced and reproduced by men in their actual life process , or otherwise can be an alienated view that instead of allowing this understanding , this takes place in the consciousness of people with myths , with illusions , with conceptions Human Rights Education : Theoretical and methodological foundations consolidate the inability of people to understand the world and understand the world , even without awareness, are producing and reproducing in their daily lives . Human Rights Education : Theoretical and methodological foundations publications , spaces in the press , promoting personalities who distinguished themselves in their defense . The press gives systematic relation to issues of urban eco violation of human rights , although much smaller space is reserved for cases of rural violence that appear assimilated generally to a general scenario of lack of respect for the rights without individualization of victims and concrete conditions of these circumstances in the field . Limits and potentials A balance of education on human rights allows constatemos its limitations but at the same time, its potential has not yet been sufficiently explored . Two orders of limitations surrounding the concept of human rights and its ability to provide significant educator force in peoples consciousness . First comes the shock of those rights with the strong repressive impulse that the repeated - and, as a rule sensational - reports of cases of violent crimes points to the accentuation of convictions and penalties , as increasing penalties could alone have a major effect in the fight against impunity and impose the rule of law . Education - if we use the word - the culture of violence that nourishes disputes audience of commercial media , equipping the police cases , is a powerful enemy of the rule of law and create awareness about the democratic rights of all . The marketing theme in the hands of companies seeking to maximize profit - ensuring audience through the cruel manipulation of the lower instincts of sectors of the population - are imposed by a supposed moral indignation that actually fosters the spirit of pure revenge and simple. This ideological battle takes place in very different conditions , with much of the media on the one hand - both television , radio and written about - counting the human rights defenders to tight areas . Apart from these arguments that appeal to rational and compassionate visions , which have proved capable of achieving , accustomed to a type of argument that has been unable to obtain effectiveness in broader sectors of the population more restricted audience. Human Rights Education : Theoretical and methodological foundations Called right of bandits - - criminalization might do human rights is known , with the complicity of politicians, bound , often directly to police , para- police and death squads . Sectors of the Left itself , fearful , sometimes characterized as being complicit with criminals , yield to public pressure made by the aforementioned mechanisms . Hardly there will be change in these unfavorable conditions for human rights , without the disruption of private oligopoly media , trade dynamics feeding this , making it a key mechanism for disqualification of serious debates on human rights . The referendum on the armament was a good example , as it would be if there was a similar about the death penalty or reduction of criminal responsibility of adolescents . The other major difficulty lies in the consideration of human rights narrowly , separate from other rights - principally economic and social . The origin of the contemporary concept allowed this fragmentation , because he was born in resistance to the military dictatorship , with this connotation , besides international landmark , the hegemony of liberal conceptions , both point in this direction . Also, when there are different organizations - trade unions , on the one hand , human rights commissions another - with members from different origins and practices , it helped crystallize this differentiation . This fragmented approach typical of new paradigms that cross themes - feminism, demography, ethnic issues , human rights , economic and social rights - contributes more to empty the entire contents and, in a way inseparable from human rights . Only a more comprehensive approach , together with a joint action and formation of entities that match this approach may allow to overcome this weakness .
