FORLANI,, Nicolas. Extractivism and education. A critical look at the secondary education in the province of Córdoba, Argentina. Trab. soc. [online]. 2019, n.32, pp.143-155. ISSN 1514-6871.

The present work aims at reflecting from a critical perspective the link between the expansion of extractivist production logics and the curricular contents of the middle school in the territories in which such logics of accumulation by dispossession occur. In order to achieve this task in this research we will use an empirical reference: that of the province of Cordoba (a "model" territory in terms of the expansion of agribusiness in Argentina) and the educational proposal (the curricular contents) set by the Ministry of Education of this province for the formation of the students in the middle school. The results of the research reflect the absence of specific contents capable of dimensioning the negative impacts of agribusiness as a hegemonic agricultural logic. Interpretive lines are proposed to understand such deliberate absences. The paper concludes with the presentation of three approaches (for non-neutral education, ecology of knowledge, for an education not only critical but also propositive) whose horizon points to the construction of a postextractivist education.
