On the article, the school itself is discussed as a public institution - governed by the state - as well as the school curriculum, not only as a way of control, but also as a public policy in the service of creating an idea of belonging to a consistent world-wide order aligned with the industrial urban mode.

Finally, it presents a contribution to the curricular discussion about the meaning and the importance of the purposes of teaching this discipline in the school environment, especially regarding the strengthening of the debate about possibilities in the process of implementing the recently approved Common National Curricular Base (brazilian BNCC).
