FLORES, Maria Assunção. Discourses about teacher professionalism: paradoxes and conceptual alternatives. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2014, vol.19, n.59, pp.851-869. ISSN 1413-2478. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1413-24782014000900002.
This paper identifies and analyses discourses about teacher professionalism based upon different conceptions, characteristics and dimensions. For that, the most important authors in this field are discussed in an international context. It is argued that the analysis of teacher professionalism at present implies the consideration of multiple discourses that have emerged in this field. In particular the paper looks at the discourses related to the so-called "performance cultures" and accountability, in order to unveil the implications (and contradictions) underpinning them with repercussion for teachers' professional identities.
