The present work aims to analyze the conception of education of István Mészáros from
his theorizations, conceptions and educational understandings in Education beyond
capital (2005), in order to reflect on the construction of a transformative educational
practice, such as a sustainable alternative. It starts from the need to perceive an urgent
change in the hegemonic social structure based on education. Considers in this broad
debate the state, function and theoretical-educational search for postulating an
authentic conception, far from the coercive limits of capital, as well as fulfilling the
historical objectives attributed to education, whether formal, informal or non-formal. In
this conflict, he understands that to institute a radical change, it is necessary to reflect
on the critique of the socio-metabolic organism of capital, in addition to building a
critique that seeks to break with the incorrigible logic of capital, bearing in mind the real
objectives of education: human emancipation.
