BILHAO, Isabel Aparecida  y  KLAFKE, Álvaro Antonio. From SIRENA to MEB: interrelations between entrepreneurs, Catholic Church, and State for the implementation of radio education in Brazil (decade of 1950). Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2020, vol.25, e250052.  Epub 04-Nov-2020. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782020250052.

The article analyzes the interrelations between the Catholic Church, Philips do Brasil, and the Brazilian government for the implementation of an educational radio system in the country. We assessed the interinstitutional relations throughout the 1950s when the fight against illiteracy became a national policy. The examination of sources favored, besides official documents and other writings, the book Educação fundamental pelo rádio (Elementary Education on the Radio) by João Ribas da Costa, professor, radio education enthusiast, and Philips employee. Based on Michel de Certeau's strategy concept, we aimed to identify the arguments defending the implementation of the National Educational Radio System (Sistema Rádio Educativo Nacional - SIRENA), understand the idea of the role and responsibility of the State circulating at the time, and highlight the distinct interests that converged on a common project. Lastly, we evaluated the relations between the constitution of this System and the establishment of the Basic Education Movement (Movimento de Educação de Base - MEB), in 1961.
