OLIVEIRA, RAFAEL BASTOS COSTA DE; LOUZADA, VIRGÍNIA CECÍLIA DA ROCHA  and  SANTOS, PAULO DAVID DE JESUS TOSTES DOS. Democratic management of education, political participation and election of principals: analyzing the experience of school occupations in Rio de Janeiro. Revista Brasileira de Política e Administração da Educação [online]. 2020, vol.36, n.1, pp.272-292.  Epub July 27, 2020. ISSN 2447-4193.  https://doi.org/10.21573/vol36n12020.99720.

Our purpose is to analyze the dimensions of school management, political participation of students, and the relationship with the school community from the occupations of schools in Rio de Janeiro, in 2016. Based on the experience of two students and one of the authors of the text, we used the philosophy of praxis and the Braudelian legacy as the theoretical-methodological framework. As a research strategy, we used action research and interviews. We concluded that this experience was fundamental for the students' lives, both at the time of the event and in its consequences.

Keywords : Democratic management of education; Occupation of schools; Political participation; Experience.
