Abstract
In this paper we analyze the concept of Education for disobedience that the trainee-teacher students at the University of Valladolid (UVa), Spain, have when they start their basic training. In this way, we try to approach the perception that future teachers, responsible for the formation of future generations, have regarding this concept. Once they have taken the subject of Education for Peace and Equality in the Education degree, in which students are trained on issues related to Education for disobedience, we have assessed whether there is a change in the conception and attitudes associated with this type of education. To do this, we carried out a case study, during ten academic years, in which we used 1,395 open questionnaires, six group interviews with students, two individual interviews with teachers and non-participant observation records. Once the study, we concluded that there are serious deficiencies in the training of students on Education for disobedience. We underline the importance of carrying out this type of training with future teachers, since it is a way to globalize solidarity, justice and social transformation through education and peaceful acts of disobedience. This is a necessary aspect to train critical people with the capacity to transform the world in the face of inequalities and social injustices.
