TORRES, JULIO CESAR et al. Inclusive Education in the Educational Project of MST. Rev. Comunic [online]. 2015, vol.22, n.2, pp.149-164. ISSN 2238-121X. https://doi.org/10.15600/2238-121X/comunicacoes.v22n2p149-164.
This paper aims at discussing some elements regarding inclusive education in the educational project of the Landless Workers’ Movement (MST). The study comprises literature review and desk research. The theoretical framework is supported by researches and investigations about rural education, especially the latest production. For the analysis of MST’s educational policies, documents produced and published by scholars and national leaders stand out. Partial results indicate that the Movement’s perspectives towards school inclusion, in accordance with its political program, involve simultaneously and articulately the demands advocated and voiced also by other social movements. More specifically, with regard to school education, it appears that MST addresses broader issues, linked more directly to the category of social classes and other complex and important issues such as special education, inclusive education, gender relations and, in particular, the very question of rural education.
