PIRES, Flávia Ferreira; CARNEIRO, Rosamaria Giatti and SARAIVA, Marina Rebeca de Oliveira. COVID-19, SCHOOLS AND CHILDHOODS IN BRAZIL: SCIENTIFIC, POLITICAL AND EMOTIONAL CONTROVERSIES ON THE SCENE. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2022, vol.27, e270119. Epub Dec 22, 2022. ISSN 1809-449X. https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782022270119.
During 2020, in Brazil, schools remained closed and children at home; their mothers or caregivers were with them, combining home and professional life. This article aims to describe the relationships between mothers, schools and children, based on the debate regarding the notions of care, work, neoliberalism and emotions; taking from the outset the idea that these relations, at first so ordinary, during the first year of the Sars-Cov-2 19 pandemic, unveiled an extraordinary dimension of their interface and importance for the entire maintenance of social life. In this sense, it explores an interface of fields that are of interest to Social Sciences and that, therefore, also highlight its originality and investigative importance. For this, media news, scientific articles, dialogues carried out on social networks and interviews with interlocutors of ongoing ethnographic research were considered.
Keywords : pandemic Covid-19; schools; mothers; children; emotions.
