This article presents a reflection on the political meanings of the projects and programs of educational reforms for High School, after the end of the Military’s Dictatorship period (1985-2017). It introduces as a problematic the argument that a quality education could enable the democracy. The analysis of this article was based on the documents and information provided by the Brazilian Federal Government as well as the interpreters of the social political history. It was given an especial attention to the reforms of Education and Brazilian State, also the national and international capitalism cycle, evidencing a gap between the proposed by the documents and the results implemented. It is emphasized, then, taking as reference the process of social inclusion/exclusion, that the educational reforms were adapted to the technological changes and the crisis of the capital.

Keywords : Educational policies; Reform of the State; Democracy and inclusion/social exclusion.
