We study the following elements in the book Pedagogy of the oppressed of Paulo Freire: 1) The perspective of the victim as a specific place from which to start understanding History-histories and 2) The struggle against ideologies, from the philosopher of liberation Ignacio Ellacuría and, also, some neo-marxisms. It is interpreted and linked these topics of Freire to critical traditions of Latin American and European philosophy. This is a theoretical work based on the review of related literature in major databases from which to interpret some aspects of the educator. We conclude by emphasizing this theoretical relation of a certain philosophy of historical reality and a philosophy of otherness in the liberating pedagogy.
