CANDAU, Vera Maria  e  LEITE, Miriam Soares. Diferença e desigualdade: dilemas docentes no ensino fundamental. Cad. Pesqui. [online]. 2011, vol.41, n.144, pp.948-967. ISSN 0100-1574.

Although the incorporation of issues related to difference in educational research and practice has clearly been growing in recent years, its approach still brings more concerns than answers. Our intention in this text is to contribute toward those discussions, focusing the inequality-difference tension identified in representations of teachers expressed in the focal group organized in the context of the research Multiculturalism, human rights and education: tension between equality and difference. Among the various viewpoints emerging on the Latin American continent, we work within the intercultural perspective. The meanings attributed to the word difference by the participants of the focal group in question are problematized, so that in conclusion we will discuss the association of the word difference with prejudice and discrimination, as a well as its meaning as inequality. We also focus the productivity of the focal group as an alternative to the collective interview, since it provided a privileged space for interaction among the participants, offering an opportunity for discursive constructions less directed by the research and closer to their everyday practices.

Palavras-chave : Focal Groups; Multiculturalism; Social Inequality; Teachers.
