Abstract

ARAUJO, Stephane Silva de  and  LEITE, Maria Cecilia Lorea. The defense for “freedom of choice” strengthening a business network: Brazilian homeschooling. Práxis Educativa [online]. 2020, vol.15, e2014819.  Epub June 04, 2020. ISSN 1809-4309.  https://doi.org/10.5212/praxeduc.v.15.14819.039.

Homeschooling has gained notoriety on the national scene in recent years. Considering this peculiarity, this exploratory study focused on identifying, from the Brazilian campaign “Home Education - Immediate Right”, led by the National Association of Home Education (Associação Nacional de Educação Domiciliar - ANED), which individual or collective agents are characterized as supporters of that and what types of services they offer to the population. The existence of a “network” based on conservative interests was verified, predominating in their discourses a mercantile, selective and contrary to teaching and schooling bias. It was also observed the concomitant performance of the subjects in several platforms, which offer pedagogical guides, courses and certifications with very high costs, thus highlighting the intended target audience.

Keywords : Homeschooling; Business network; Right to education.
