Abstract

MARTINEZ, MARÍA ELENA  and  SEOANE, VIVIANA ISABEL. Disputes over the right to education and public education in Latin America: policies, institutions and subjects in neoliberal governmentality. Revista Brasileira de Política e Administração da Educação [online]. 2020, vol.36, n.1, pp.17-36.  Epub July 27, 2020. ISSN 2447-4193.  https://doi.org/10.21573/vol36n12020.95673.

Neoliberalism is dominating the political-institutional and social life of Latin American democracies, changing the concept of politics. Neoliberal governance produces renewed forms of commercialization and privatization in public education, imposing business models on school management, and restructuring labor relations in the education system. These changes in the structures and forms of government of education are oriented to producing submissive subjectivities, preventing any form of criticism in the field of education.

Keywords : Democracy; Neoliberalism; Public education; Latin America.
