摘要:The article reconstructs the work of Orlando Fals Borda from the perspective of his contributions to the sociology of education. It presents some of the specific elements of what we could call Fals Borda’s sociology of education, which are closely related but not limited to Participatory Action Research (par). It discusses some of the central elements of his position regarding a national education, which is quite close to popular education approaches, as well as the idea of a politics of knowledge characterized by the construction and consolidation of a national science, on the basis of contextual, endogenous processes. The article shows the emphasis of Fals Borda’s work on consolidating both sociology as a discipline in the country and a sociology of education with national, regional, and international impact characterized by a clear and concrete proposal from the epistemological, conceptual, and methodological points of view. Likewise, the paper highlights some little-known aspects of the appropriation of Fals Borda’s work related to the sociology of liberation in the international context, especially in the English-speaking, critical and alternative sphere. The method employed is the analysis of a variety of works by Fals Borda, as well as of complementary bibliography, privileging a reconstructive reading of his contributions to knowledge regarding education in Colombia, and of his more theoretical proposals regarding education and science, in relation with par. The article concludes with a final reflection on the pedagogical path traced by Fals Borda and the need to keep building new paths of realistic hopes, despite the populist uncertainty that is taking over the region and the world in the 21st century.
