Subsunção do público ao privado na educação paraense

Abstract

The present study is a Master's dissertation which objective is to analyze how occurs the subsumption of the public sector to the private sector in education through public-private partnerships in the State of Pará, and also to reveal, by documents analyzes , what the State of Pará idealizes as improvement for the education by firming partnerships and what its implications in the school manager work, focusing the analyzes on the relationship between Municipal Government of Pará and the Ayrton Senna Institute (IAS), which represents the so-called Third Sector and the partnerships resulting from the "Education Pact of Pará" which are established between public schools and private companies that also have representatives of the Third Sector. The study was grounded in the historical-dialectical materialism, and a bibliographic and documentary study was conducted with the purpose of knowing and better defining the object, subsumption is understood as a Marxist category, that is inserted in capitalist society and can be observed through relations of implicit or explicit power and is manifested in other daily situations such as partnerships with subjection, subordination of the public sector to the orientations of the private sector. From the set of considerations, it can be concluded that in the two analyzed examples, the public sector had to adjust to the private sector impositions, according to it, the schools that received the actions resulting from these agreements were not heard to know what their main difficulties and if they want participate in the programs they should to comply with what had been defined in higher instances demonstrating a vertical relationship, where the school manager, after signing the agreement or the Pact, had to fit in a determinate profile if he wanted to perform his function, and in the particular case of the IAS, the manager was minimized to a mechanical work of completing worksheets and charging execution of the actions pre-defined by the Institute in the school under his responsibility, functioning as well as a private sector agent with direct responsibility for the school achievements. It is argued in this Dissertation that public-private partnerships can be implemented as long as they represent a desire of the public schools that will receive the programs provided by private companies. In addition, it is understood that the school manager plays an important role as decision-making of the collective, and in the organization of the pedagogical work, although it is not the central figure of the school and thus can not be blamed for the results of the school indexes, which have become the only indicative of quality in education in the State of Pará.
