ABSTRACT
This paper reviews some aspects of critical writings, such as the question related to language and its political and pedagogical meanings as barriers to access to knowledge. It departs from the teaching experience, as such experience shows us that, in practice, class perspectives define the methodological approach to be used as well as the limits to which the teacher grasps theory and interprets reality. The premise of the study is that the use of a critical approach implies breaking with metaphysical and idealist thinking, as such use recognizes the importance of a different conception of history and politics, which sees everything as immanent and historical, just as everything is political in the constitution of modern society. This study also emphasizes the political dimension of language as an instrument for consolidating bourgeois hegemony. Finally, it addresses formal logic and materialist dialectics and their implications for education. Explaining the differences between formal and dialectical logic allows us to elucidate the difficulties of an educational practice in higher education.
