ALVES, MIRIAM FÁBIA  and  REIS, LÍVIA CRISTINA RIBEIRO DOS. Militization of public schools: reflections in light of the conception of democratic management of education in Paulo Freire. Revista Brasileira de Política e Administração da Educação [online]. 2021, vol.37, n.2, pp.810-831.  Epub Mar 31, 2022. ISSN 2447-4193.  https://doi.org/10.21573/vol37n22021.113221.

The article enunciates reflections on the National Program of the Civic-Military Schools (PECIM) in the light of Paulo Freire’s conception of democratic management of education. In comparison with the scientific literature, the analysis showed that the program represents a setback in the field of educational policies because it constitutes a threat to the principle of democratic management of schools, injures pedagogical autonomy, expropriates spaces for teaching performance and processes of teaching and learning, as well as mischaracterize the public school as a space to be more, that is, as a locus of critical, liberating, inclusive and emancipatory human formation.

Keywords : Paulo Freire; Democratic management; Militarization of public schools.
