Abstract

This article attempts to describe and analyze the pedagogical discourse constructed by the education policy of the Confederation of Popular Economy Workers (CTEP). From our conceptual perspective, political education is understood as a frame process that intervenes in the relation between the social movement and its context, framing collective action. To this end, different aspects of the education policy are analyzed: (a) its genesis and objectives; (b) the support materials; and (c) the educative circuits. The starting point of the article affirms the correlation between the political and unionism practices of CTEP and the characteristics of this actor and the proposed educational policy; the other way round, the construction of a pedagogical discourse operates in the reaffirmation of the political and unionism practices. The methodological approach was qualitative and it included document collection —education support materials and articles from CTEP web site— and interviews with leaders of different organizations part of CTEP who were linked to the educational policy. The relevance of the considerations presented in this article is related to the approach of a case study which has been insufficiently studied in general and, particularly, regarding the construction of the pedagogical discourse.
