Historical, Political and Educational Writings

By: Bauer, Carlos

This collection brings together writings that examine Brazilian education not as a linear narrative of progress, but as an ideological battlefield. With a perspective firmly anchored in critical social theory, especially the Marxist tradition, Carlos Bauer unveils the intricate relationships between education, power, class struggles, and societal projects.The essays traverse a broad thematic spectrum: from the proletarianization of tea-ching work to university unionism; from the educational principles of the Landless Workers' Movement (MST) to the political training experiences of the Nativo da Natividade Foundation; from the analysis of higher education expansion to reflec-tions on the theory of history and knowledge production. The work does not shy away from investigating the roots of the educational crisis, precarious massification, the authoritarian heritage, and the challenges of building a truly democratic and popular education.Ana Rita Ferreira, educator and psychoanalyst.
