CHIZZOTTI, Antônio  e  CASALI, Alípio. Inequality, Poverty and Difference: Precariousness in School Life. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2020, vol.34, n.70, pp.193-222.  Epub 06-Fev-2022. ISSN 1982-596X.  https://doi.org/10.14393/revedfil.v34n70a2020-49541.

This article aims to analyze inequality, poverty and specific social differences - discrimination and segregation - and their impacts on precariousness of school life: failure and school dropout. The center of analysis lies in the vicious circularity by which, in a direction, inequality and poverty determine the differentiation of people that result in school failure, and on the way round, school failure results in more poverty and more inequality. Such circularity is an impossibility of compliance with the universal right of education - a promise of liberal democracy. It’s about a bibliographic study of a wide range of authors on economics, sociology, law and philosophy, with references to UN, UNESCO, OECD documents and the brazilian Federal Constitution. The results of the study point out to the responsibilities of public policies, educational systems and the pedagogical projects of the school units, to interrupt the circularity of this precariousness.

Palavras-chave : Inequality; Poverty; Precariousness; Difference; School Failure.
