Resumo: In this article I describe the practices of agents involved in the 1957 reopening of Kenyan independent schools that had been closed in 1952 because they were considered “guerrilla hotbeds”, as well as the establishment of new schools under the direction of Consolata missionaries. The missionaries’ involvement in the reopening of old schools and the creation of new ones is the fruit of relationships built during the guerrilla war, when huge numbers of Kikuyu Kenya’s largest ethnic group, were imprisoned in concentration or detention camps. The analyses in this paper is based on data gathered from the field, along with archival and library research, utilizing a perspective focused on relational processes.

A escolha destes missionários para dirigi-las e os esforços para construir novas escolas são fruto de relações que foram se constituindo ao longo do período da guerrilha, iniciada em 1952, em que a maior parte dos kikuyus, maior grupo populacional do Quênia, ficou aprisionada em campos de concentração ou detenção. Para a análise basear-me-ei em dados colhidos em pesquisas de campo, documental e bibliográfica, analisados a partir de uma perspectiva focada em processos relacionais.
