intersubjective sharing of values

Human rights education, culture of human right, multidimensional education, communicative interaction, intersubjectivityAbstract
The set of Human Rights, today, is a direct response to the totalitarian practices of extermination of human beings, the result of a technical-instrumental rationality, during the Second World War (1939 - 1945). Thus, this article seeks to investigate whether education is an adequate strategy for the formation of a multidimensional Culture in Human Rights based on the intersubjective sharing of values, without using force / violence or political / economic superiority as an element that promotes the common. It begins with the presentation of some concepts and characteristics regarding education and human rights. Then, it presents the multiplicity of foundations and dimensions of Human Rights Education - HRE, as outlined from the second half of the twentieth century, in international and national documents. Finally, the main characteristics of a technical-instrumental world-culture and the possibilities of social transformation are addressed, through human interaction mediated by communication. The article is developed in a dialectical approach, using as a technique the literature review, which supports the discussion of concepts and the analysis of some legal documents. After the investigative path, it is concluded that HRE is a multidimensional strategy to promote a Human Rights Culture by reinforcing the common aspects of humanity, producing consensus around human dignity, respect and inclusion, without resorting to the use of force, threat or oppression.
