A crise do capital e o projeto reacionário de educação: uma análise do ataque reacionário do Escola Sem Partido ao Colégio Pedro II

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the conservatism rise process on Brazil, connecting it with the capitalism crisis contexto, and what we understand to be its synthesis at the educational field, the “Escola Sem Partido” (ESP) program. The Pedro II school becomes the base of our analyze, because we think the it allowed us glimpse the modus operandi of ESP, inasmuch as the main target of it militancy, parliamentary and media, over the last years. Therefore, we use the historic and dialectic materialism as the foundation of comprehension and action on our object and the world, namely, oh our práxis. We understand that the conservative rise in our country is the “ESP” rising basis, and, consequently, can only be understood by analyzing the systemic or structural capitalism crisis, what makes a material and dialectic perspective. On the dialectic relation between the capitalism universality and particularity, the brazilian comprehension occurred by the “Marxist Theory of Dependence” (MARINI, 2012), whose contras is the theoretical effort to apprehend in a rigorous mode the brazilian reality. Another central axis of this research was the ontology understanding by the productions of Lukács (2012), what provided clarity and methodological firmness to approach our object, besides the better conditions to understand the human being at his all dimensions. The methodological tool used for the deepening of our study was the Discourse Critical Analysis (FAIRCLOUGH, 2001), that allowed us to look at the official documents as laws, general rules, etc., as well as learn about the different discourses and positions in dispute. The Discourse Critical Analysis enable us to verify that the discourse of a supposed neutrality, which is an ideological basis of ESP, is not only a reality falsification, like an ontological impossibility. Furthermore, was also possible capture by an analysis of the reactionary program discourses its real purpose, to promote a broad privatization of public education by the educational services and its servers demoralization. Likewise, we studied de conservative actions as part of a reaction program of a capital that desperately needs to retake the domination class principles. However, we also studied the working class resistance to Escola Sem Partido, their limits and possibilities, and proved that this struggle belongs to a bigger confrontation, that regards to class struggle and their potentialities of capitalism overcoming or maintenance
