COIMBRA, Leonardo José Pinho and DE SOUSA, Ana Paula Ribeiro. CONSERVATORISM AND (NEO) POSITIVISM IN BRAZILIAN EDUCATION: THE SCHOOL WITHOUT PARTY MOVEMENT. Revista da FAEEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2020, vol.29, n.58, pp.67-77. Epub Dec 01, 2021. ISSN 2358-0194. https://doi.org/10.21879/faeeba2358-0194.2020.v29.n58.p67-77.
The text analyzes the School without Party Movement from its epistemological, political and ideological foundations, understood as articulated dimensions of an authoritarian and conservator thought, which aims, in spite of combating «ideological indoctrination», to eradicate any possibilities of a critical and emancipating education, instituting a unique view in the school. The reinvigoration of conservative ideas about the supposed impartiality of knowledge expresses a conservative political conception, which seeks to eliminate the contradiction and the reality’s movement and its possibility of apprehension by science and transmission by the school, advocating that teachers should refrain from polemics and debates and stick to the function of instructing, reserving to families the function of educating. Such a movement is problematic as it reduces the teacher’s autonomy and denies the teacher the function of educating. This papper is an exploratory study, of an analytical character, based on the materialism method, based on philosophical categories that aim to better understand the phenomenon in its historical objectivity.
