RESUMO

Human Rights became a relevant global issue during the last decades of XX century. In this context it is possible to identify the construction of few consensus such as the statement that democracy´s consolidation is as a priority for the full accomplishment of the Human Rights. In the same way, human rights education efforts became a proposal shared by multilateral organizations involved in the struggle to promote human rights. This investigation intends to emphasize the existing relations between Human Rights, Education and Democracy, focusing on the interconnections between human rights education and history teaching practices. In order to gather information about those relations we interviewed fifteen teachers of basic education (5th to 8th grade) public schools in Rio de Janeiro. The interviews were conducted with the purpose to clarify the conceptions of history teaching and its possible links with human rights education. The results of this present study suggests the existence of a wide space of potentialities, but the effective accomplishment of those alliances demands an approach movement and dialogue between the field of the education and the Human Rights.
