GONZALEZ, NOELIA FERNANDEZ. THE SYMBOLIC STRUGGLE OVER EDUCATION IN NEO-LIBERAL GLOBALIZATION. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.71, e227171.  Epub 08-Nov-2017. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/S1413-24782017227171.

In the passage to postmodernity, globalization is a complex process that influences on state configuration and its education policies. Far from neutrality, this neoliberal globalization serves processes of capital hyper accumulation, making the State to act as a competitive one, with less competences and forced to foster these accumulation processes. Education policies also focus on this objective, encouraging the development of quasi markets of education, like in Spain, especially after the last education reform in 2013. These policies are resignified and reappropriated by individuals and organizations, eventually creating resistance discourses. As a result, education becomes a space of symbolic struggle.

Palabras clave : globalization; neo-liberalism; State; privatization; quasi-market.
