MARTINS, João Batista. Epistemological contributions of the multi-referential approach to the understanding of educational phenomena. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2004, n.26, pp. 85-94. ISSN 1413-2478.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1413-24782004000200007.

Presents the contributions of the multi-referential approach to the understanding of educational phenomena emphasising the epistemological aspects. To this end, we discuss the historical moment in which the notion of multi-referentiality is structured as well as some of the concepts used to re-situate the epistemological questions inherent to the knowledge building process on social phenomena and, more specifically, those related to education.

Keywords : multi-referentiality; education; epistemology.
