SILVA, Maria das Graças Martins da  y  VELOSO, Tereza Christina Mertens Aguiar. Democratização do ingresso na educação superior: liames com a teoria marxista. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.39, pp.409-428. ISSN 1981-0431.

This text discusses the democratization on admission policies in higher education, according to Marx, Lukács and Wood’s theoretical mediation. It is based on documentary and bibliographic sources, highlighting the selective modes of entry. The study brings to light the complexity of the meaning of democracy, a concept involved in the social contradictions, in the transformation of society and in the understanding of being human. It is also possible to apprehend a discourse of infallibility and redemption regarding admission into higher education, while in reality, it occurs in a limited and contradictory fashion.

Palabras clave : Higher Education; Admission Policies; Democratization.
