ALVES, Andréia Vicência Vitor  y  VIEGAS, Elis Regina dos Santos. Participation in Municipal Councils of Education: between limitations and potentialities. J. Pol. Educ-s [online]. 2019, vol.13, e64849.  Epub 18-Jul-2022. ISSN 1981-1969.  https://doi.org/10.5380/jpe.v13i0.64849.

The purpose of this text is to apprehend the idea and potential of participation in the Municipal Council of Education, since it constitutes one of the central democratizing mechanisms of educational management. For that, a theoretical-bibliographic study was carried out in order to highlight the Councils as spaces that present a dynamic of differentiated participation. We infer, therefore, from the developed study that participation in the scope of the Municipal Councils of Education has the potential to democratize educational management by enabling the decentralization of power, promoting transparency, involvement and collective work, articulated and interactive, aiming to make citizens become part of and take part in decisions in order to ensure the effectiveness of an education that serves the interests of society as a whole, in particular, the most disadvantaged. However, such potentialities (of participation) occupy a space in their essence and/or root, to a great extent, in the ideal world of legislation, since its limits, on the other hand, are situated in the real world. Therefore, there is an imminent need for a constant critical collective positioning to defend this format in public educational management.
