BARRETO, Raquel Goulart and LEHER, Roberto. Do discurso e das condicionalidades do Banco Mundial, a educação superior "emerge" terciária. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2008, vol.13, n.39, pp.423-436. ISSN 1413-2478.
This article discusses changes in higher education produced by the recontextualization of the World Bank's discourse in Brazil, considering the ways in which "governance-related conditionalities" have been converted into political practices. It consists of two parts. The first one, centred on discourse as a material form of ideology, analyzes the "key publications" related to higher education, based on the features of what can be called a "discourse of emergences". The second part approaches the material dimension of the new imperialism, elicits its fundamental contradictions and focuses the conditions of production of shifting from the university-based model to the tertiary one.
Keywords : Discourse; New Imperialism; Recontextualization; Higher Education.
