La uniculturalidad del pensamiento frente al pensamiento diverso, intercultural en la educación ecuatoriana

Abstract

This essay is the result of research for the thesis entitled Uniculturalism of rational logical thinking in the educational system of Unidad Educativa “Celina Vivar Espinosa”, 2012. We were able to show that this educational system reverses and develops a single type of logical-rational thought through mechanisms of discipline - power/knowledge. The purpose of this paper is to reflect on the need for interculturalism as an alternative to uniculturalism in the country’s educational system. The framework is multiculturalism. It is expected to demonstrate the need for transformation in the education system in accordance with the Constitution, the Education Act and Regulations in force.
