This article intends to analyze the criticism of the Portuguese Jesuit pedagogues published in two dozen articles in the Brotéria Journal in the 1930s and 1940s. The New School Movement was observed by pedagogues and philosophers of the education of the Society of Jesus, namely Paulo Durão, José Gomes Braz, and Costa Lima, who studied the theory and the presuppositions of this pedagogical movement valuing the aspects that coincided with the values ​​of the Ignatian pedagogy and criticizing options and pedagogical practices opposed to the educational principles of Catholic doctrine then present. Their religious neutrality and appropriation of “secular associations” were supposed to be ideologically instrumentalizing this educational movement in order to distance themselves from, or even oppose themselves, the so-called Catholic-inspired education. We try to reflect critically on the evolution of the Jesuit thought expressed in Bortéria Journal regarding the diffusion of the New School in Portugal in the context of the New State and to emphasize the attempt of dialogue between Jesuit pedagogical article writers and this movement that contributes to diversify the ideologies and pedagogical methodologies implemented in the country.
