MARCON, Telmo  e  PIAIA, Consuelo Cristine. High intensity democratic management: analysis of a school experience under construction. Educação. Santa Maria [online]. 2020, vol.45, e36043.  Epub 20-Jul-2023. ISSN 1984-6444.  https://doi.org/10.5902/1984644436043.

The paper of bibliographic and documental nature has the objective of analyzing an experience of democratic management in the public state school Zandoná in “Barra Funda”, Rio Grande do Sul. This school has been building, since 2001, a high intensity democratic management, involving the school community and organizations of the civil society, especially social movements. Boaventura de Sousa Santos, among other authors, is calling attention for the need of giving visibility to democratic practices being built that are able to overcome comprehensions of democracy as merely a formal procedure. Based in productions of the bibliography about democracy and democratic management and in documents and publications from the schools, some dimensions of this experience, its advancements and challenges faced, will be analyzed. That starts with a more general problematization of the theme, followed by a discussion about political and pedagogic potentialities of the democratic management and enters the experience of the school. Final considerations reaffirm the thesis that this experience effectively constitutes a high intensity democracy and has potentialities to overcome many of the problems faced in the school.
