Abstract

Education nowadays is weakened, taking knowledge fragmentation as a reference. From this starting point, our inquiry is: how to overcome such knowledge fragmentation that education has been suffering in contemporary times? Seeking to solve this problem, we engage in a literature review, which is essential to any kind of study, from two of Edgar Morin’s works: The seven knowledges necessary to the future education (2000) and Education and the complexity of being and knowing (2011). Transdisciplinarity advocates the reunion of knowledges preventing society from becoming a victim of the individualization imposed by the society itself. Education, directly or indirectly, is responsible for the facts and events in the society, therefore, educators must renew their teaching practices in order to facilitate the citizens’ critical thought development, forgetting traditional values and seeking more and more to update the information to be passed on. Education requires a fast and courageous response to the present time, in which uncertainty rules, that will create space for the deconstruction of a complete being.
