SILVA, Vanderson de Sousa. Políticas públicas para a educação a distância: democratização do ensino superior?. Educação. UNISINOS [online]. 2014, vol.18, n.02, pp.112-120. ISSN 2177-6210.
This article aims to discuss the public policies regarding distance education in Brazil, particularly in its relations to the economic and political process. Based on the observation that all public policy is the result of a view of the real world, the article aims to discuss the relations of the capitalization of education in a neoliberal model. This discussion shows that the model of implementation of the distance education modality undergirded by the discourse about the ‘democratization’ of higher education actually reveals the underlying process of commodification and privatization of education in Brazil in the Fernando Henrique Cardoso and Lula administrations. The article is guided by Marxist theory as its theoretical framework.
