REDONDO, Patricia. Latin American childhood(s), between social and educational. Espac. blanco, Ser. indagaciones [online]. 2015, vol.25, n.1, pp.153-172. ISSN 1515-9485.

Thinking about childhood today in Latin American is an urgent issue. This means to reflect about both the historical and social mind that we live in our Latin America as stopping to understand, in political terms, our own human condition, understood not as the effect of the conditions under which it has given man's life but as one that defines its existence by the action of men. Advances in recent years have decreased levels of poverty but inequality continues to affect millions of people living in our region. The education has as main pedagogical task "verify equality" and allow children to add something of their own to the world that they arrives. Enlarge the boundaries of education in the social territory, demands a teacher position that do not give up or looks that stigmatize children attending each day to schools in the popular neighborhoods. To educate requires moving the limits of the possible.

Palavras-chave : Latin American childhoods; the social question; education; child poverty; birth rate; childhood as a political subject.
