A “Educação para Todos” como perspectiva de superação do Capital como lógica social: análise com base no pensamento dialético de Marx.

Abstract

This thesis discusses, at large, the “Education for All” idea/proposal and, specifically the “citizen shaping” effectiveness of the purpose’s implications of these proposals, using Marx’s material-dialectical perspective as a theoretical-methodological reference. Its purpose is to demonstrate that, in accordance with Marx’s perspective, the execution’s purpose of “Education for All” Brazilian proposals – of shaping learners to citizenship practice – has the potential to engender emancipatory circumstances/perspectives that favor sociopolitical struggles for Capital’s logical overcoming as a social life ordering logical principle. In this sense, primarily, it has held historical developments explanatory exposition that culminated, in 1990, with UNESCO’s EfA proposal and its partners (World Bank, USA government, etc.) In Brazil, due to these supports and partnerships, this proposal acceptance, that here, since 1994, was remitted to laws and politics paradigm condition for national education generated, amongst many analysts, the thesis that EfA programs and politics effectiveness and its goals, only and exclusively, favor the logic and Capital’s power. Next, to question the universal and necessary validity of this assertive, an incursion to Marx’s piece is done which infers that reality’s determination is a material-dialectical process: characterized by the contradiction motions and opposites struggle. In a third moment, this conclusion is applied to analyze the proposal/purposes multiple determinations of education for all of Brazilian’s State. As a result, it has been concluded that: the idea/proposals/purposes of EfA are dialectical; consequently, they cannot be molded to, always and exclusively, support the capitalistic world. This allows the “shape to citizenship” purpose to be accomplished; and its actual substance (socio-politically thinking and acting against exploration, oppression and alienation) faces the Capital’s logic/power as engenders circumstances and perspectives that stimulate and subsidize the sociopolitical struggles of learners-citizens-workers against the Capital and the determination of this existing as an hegemonic logic of relations/practices of social life. For this purpose, citizens – that in Marx’s words are politically emancipated individuals – undertake struggles to reframe the contents/purposes of EfA. In turn, this takes us to social politic competition for State powers leadership, that proposes apply EfA, and, by extension, the struggle against the Capital’s logic/power that created the State.
