MANTOVANI, Aline Madia  e  CARVALHO, Anderson dos Santos. Child work and youth and adult education in the perspective of adults workers. Roteiro. UNOESC [online]. 2018, vol.43, n.esp, pp.377-397. ISSN 2177-6059.  https://doi.org/10.18593/r.v0i0.16175.

From a historical point of view, the education of the working class was not always considered necessary and, therefore, was not always defended in the legal texts. These discussions began to move forward in the legal framework due to changes in the labor market, which required the worker to have the necessary professional qualifications to perform the most diverse tasks. This text aims to discuss the Youth and Adult Education as an educational policy aimed at the young and adult population that may have had schooling hampered by work. It is a quantitative-qualitative study, in which 131 adults, of both sexes, came from two educational institutions of a medium-sized municipality in the State of São Paulo. The data were obtained from the use of an international questionnaire, submitted to analysis in the SPSS software and in the assumptions of Content Analysis. We sought to analyze the Youth and Adult Education as a modality of Basic Education aimed at the population that did not have access to the school in the right time of childhood and adolescence, as well as discussing child labor beyond a generalist and universalist view on the phenomenon. The results indicate that, despite the legal, structural and organizational progress of the Youth and Adult Education, it has not yet been established as an effective educational policy to serve the working class and that it is possible to find child labor situations in the most diverse spaces, both for the social and economic aspects that perpetuate the inequalities and the presence of cultural and ideological characteristics that justify its existence.
