Abstract

SKALINSKI JUNIOR, Oriomar  and  RUCKSTADTER, Flávio Massami Martins. Alceu Amoroso Lima´s response to the inquiry issued by the Department of Education and Public Health in 1936: an intellectual in defense of the catholic "pedagogical principles". Rev. Inter Ação [online]. 2016, vol.41, n.1, pp.43-63. ISSN 0101-7136.  https://doi.org/10.5216/ia.v40i3.35869.

The paper aims to analyze the response of Alceu Amoroso Lima (1893-1983) to the Inquiry issued by the Department of Education and Public Health, in 1936, to prepare a National Educational Plan. For this purpose, it is taken as primary source the article Pedagogical Principles (1936), published by the catholic intellectual in the magazine A Ordem, to make public his positioning. The concepts established by Antonio Gramsci are used as analysis categories, namely the hegemony, and the political and civil society ones, in order to analyze the role of the intellectuals as culture organizers within the historical bloc. It was verified that the principles defended expressed the positioning of the Catholic Church´s hierarchy, highlighting the integral formation of the human being - body, intellect and spirit - as the purpose of education.

Keywords : Department of Education and Public Health; National Educational Plan; Alceu Amoroso Lima; Catholic Church.
