This paper presents a theoretical study of the notion of “curricular justice”, important concept to think the relationship between social justice and education within the Curriculum Studies. In a context of intensification of educational inequalities, some of the major works on the theme of curriculum justice in circulation in our country are reviewed, conceptually, placing them in two predominant rationales interface - the redistribution and recognition. Inspired by the political writings of Nancy Fraser, this article will defend, as central aspect to the process of school knowledge selection, a form of curricular justice focused on the dimensions of redistribution, recognition and representation. According to the study, the concept of curricular justice, in its conceptual potentiality, can be a collective instrument that allows us to promote the defense of school justice and the social quality of education.
