| Summary: | The present study, under the Marxist perspective, was made in order to locate the inseparable relation
between ethics and education. It takes, as a methodological choice, the Marxism, as a tool to analyze the objective
reality and the social determinants of ethics and education in the Capital. In this context, this study shows that, to the
proclaimed Marxism "exhaustion", as an investigational and expositional method and, above all, a revolutionary line
over the capitalism transformation, the deserting (from left to right) is an immoral act since the defector pays works
to the dominant class and keep an aseptic distance of the class struggle. This descriptive study assumes, as the
principal task of the Marxist criticism, to report that, with rare exceptions, the intellectuals and the intellectuals of
education, without reason and imagination, tries to paralyze the learners in the confusion of the paradoxes. At last, in
the analysis of the reality, we tried to distinguish the main to the secondary, the determinant to the determiner.
Without this distinction it’s impossible to build a solid and radical criticism to the theories that stalls the
comprehension of the education as an important tool to the worker’s fight and to the construction of another mode
of existence production beyond the capital. |
