Resumo:
This work intends to make a study of the pedagogical ideas implanted by Anísio
Teixeira then called the Center for Popular Education, today called Educational Center
Carneiro Ribeiro. Search is still doing a small study of the educational reality at the
time when Anísio Teixeira has idealized and built this Center and how despite decades
after, his ideas are still considered innovative, current and recovered since 2002 by the
current body leader of the Center. Unlike other works, we do not seek to redeem the
biography of the educator, but focus on the emergence of the Center, its heyday, decline
and resurgence. This paper also briefly examines, the democratic management,

Educational Center Carneiro Ribeiro, Carmen Spínola Teixeira. Ballast for our
discussions and help in the defense of our views we asserted of current and renowned
theoretical of education (educators) and the testimony of several former students who
went through that Center
