DINIZ-PEREIRA, Júlio Emílio. NEW ATTEMPT TO STANDARDIZE TEACHER EDUCATION CURRICULA IN BRAZIL: THE “BNC-FORMAÇÃO”. Práx. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.17, n.46, pp.53-71.  Epub Dec 24, 2021. ISSN 2178-2679.  https://doi.org/10.22481/praxisedu.v17i46.8916.

The purpose of this article is to analyze the new attempt to standardize the curricula of teacher education programs in Brazil within the conservative political context that took place in this country after the 2016 coup d´état and the consolidation of this coup through the result of the 2018 presidential “election” that brought the extreme right back to power. Aligned with the so-called “market ideology”, the governments that administrated Brazil after the 2016 coup adopted a discourse about ensuring “coherence” between the national curricular guidelines for teacher education and the standardized curricula for elementary, middle, and high school education and this certainly represented a return to the attempt to homogenize the teacher education curricular proposals in the country. There is no doubt that, similarly to what happened in Brazil during the military dictatorship (1964-1985), which tried to control the curricular proposals of undergraduate programs and, more specifically, of teacher education programs, through the so-called “currículo mínimo”, BNC-Formação [the current national curricular guidelines for teacher education] is a new attempt to standardize the curricula of teacher education programs in the country.
