FURLAN, Agélica Bellodi Sant’Ana  and  SILVA, Antonio Fernando Gouvêa da. The ethical-democratic foundation of the curricular proposal of the State of São Paulo for the teaching of sciences: adaptation or emancipation?. e-Curriculum [online]. 2017, vol.15, n.4, pp.958-990.

Because it believes that only a socially committed and democratically organized education can make learners agents of social transformations, the present work seeks to understand which conception of education frames the curricular proposal of the State of São Paulo for Science Teaching and if it is in agreement with Ethical-critical principles that confer political and social quality on educational practice. For this, a documentary analysis was carried out, referenced in the ethics of Dussel, in the dialogue of Freire and in the emancipation of Adorno. It was concluded that the curricular proposal in question distance itself from such principles by not making explicit the social role of education, by not positioning itself ethically-politically in favor of a particular social group and by not characterizing the school and community where it is inserted . Due to its normative character, the aforementioned proposal and its supporting material limit the autonomy of the school presenting itself as anti-democratic documents for not considering the demands of the interested parties in the teaching-learning process.
