BILHAO, Isabel. Combats on workers' education: aspects of the Catholic reaction against the creation of Modern Schools in Brazil (1900-1920). Educ. Rev. [online]. 2016, n.60, pp.231-246. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.43357.

The pedagogical proposals by Francisco Ferrer y Guardia and his biography have been widely studied in the Brazilian academic context. However, the arguments and strategies of the opposite groups against his educational concepts, especially the ones from the Catholic Church, still require more investigation. This article aims to analyze some aspects of the Catholic reaction against the spread of Modern Schools in the country in the first decades of the twentieth century. The empirical basis of this discussion is a booklet published by Revista Vozes de Petrópolis, in 1913. We intend to extend the comprehension of the fight around education of workers in the early period of the Republic and think about the arguments of the clerics who fought against the diffusion of the rationalist education among workers.

Palabras clave : education of workers; Modern School; Catholics; anarchists.
