SCHERER, Renata Porcher. Degendering of work in the new configurations of capitalism: implications to think teaching work. Rev. Elet. Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.13, n.2, pp.520-532.  Epub Jan 01, 2020. ISSN 1982-7199.  https://doi.org/10.14244/198271993112.

This article aims to analyze the main implications of metamorphoses in the world of work in the transition from a Fordist paradigm to a post-Fordist, for the professionalization of teaching work. Therefore, three important studies on Brazilian teaching are taken as empirical material and it is pointed out the importance of considering the diagnoses about the changes in the world of work in order to understand and make more complex the current context experienced by teachers. We begin by examining the main transformations which have occurred in recent capitalism since the triumph of neoliberal thought in Brazil, signaling to the emergence of new professional profiles that are now required in the current context. Afterwards, we present a diagnosis about teaching professionalization and teaching sickness in Brazil, evidencing that the concept of degendering is an important tool for future studies which pursue to investigate such topics.

Keywords : Teaching work; Capitalism; Degendering of work.
