LIMA, Paulo Gomes. Universalização da educação superior no Brasil: contrapontos e possibilidades. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2014, n.51, pp.243-264. ISSN 0104-4060.

The process of universalization of Higher Education in Brazil, even in the face of the contemporary public policies marked by international influence, features numerous weaknesses, among which are the non-problematization of inclusion-exclusion, and the social class differences. This exploratory study, which takes the contributions of Habermas, Mészáros, Adorno and Horkheimer and Karel Kosík for the construction of an analytical framework, although not having specifically “the University” or “affirmative action policies” as its main objects of concern, makes its contributions become significant as we release another look on social issues that cannot and should not comply or submit to the predetermined logic of capital.

Keywords : Higher Education; Social Exclusion and Inclusion; Universalization.
