FERREIRA, Rafael de Farias  y  HERMIDA, Jorge Fernando. FROM AUTONOMY TO RESTRAINT: The conservative facet and the attacks to the patron of brazilian education. Revista Teias [online]. 2021, vol.22, n.67, pp.56-71.  Epub 14-Feb-2023. ISSN 1982-0305.  https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.2021.62056.

In recent years, Paulo Freire has gone from being a patron of education to being an “ignorant”, “idol of the left-wing”. This radical, but procedural, change of position had repercussions of international proportions. It generated a chain of opinions surrounding the legitimacy of Freire’s works and his importance for education. To understand the high subjectivist content employed in this situation, the essay seeks to understand why they have been contesting and decrying the legacy of the Brazilian educator since the 2016 legal-media-parliamentary coup. The study guided by historical-dialectical materialism seeks, based on what is evident, to identify the essence of actions. In this sense, the political and economic situation are bases that unveil the attacks as part of the set of strategies that seek to insert educational policies into the logic of the market. The current historical moment shows the deepening of programs aimed at the use of techniques that make teaching more flexible, control teaching hours and the school environment. The attacks on Freire are ways to immobilize the movements that resist and fight to prevent the project to dismantle public education.

Palabras clave : Paulo Freire; conservatism; neoliberalism; fascism.
