DO DIREITO À EDUCAÇÃO AO DIREITO À APRENDIZAGEM NO PACTO NACIONAL PELA ALFABETIZAÇÃO NA IDADE CERTA

Abstract

The present research presents as object of investigation the National Pact for Literacy at the Right Age (PNAIC), nationwide educational policy in effect in the Brazilian educational reality since 2012, directed to literate the children until eight years old from elementary school, which is linked to the continuing education of the literacy teachers. PNAIC as a continuing literacy program, focusing on the students’ literacy from the Literacy Cycle in the initial years of the Elementary School, inserts itself in the educational context as educational policy in favor of the right to education effectiveness.Therefore, it was chosen as a guiding question: to analyze how PNAIC starting from its actions contributes to the right to education effectiveness. To accomplish this task it was established as a main goal to undertake an analysis in relation to the prioritization of the right to education or the right to learning in the context of implementation and deployment of PNAIC. To achieve the broader goal it was proposed specific goals, which permitted to rebuild the historic trajectory right to education effectiveness by legal apparatus; the State role as a governmental sector and fundamental action to the implementation of public policies in order to effect the right to education; the historical trajectory of the teaching formation in Brazil and therefore, to identify the specific references of PNAIC and in the official documents regarding to the demands that enable the right to education or the right to learning in the neoliberal context. In order to achieve the stated propositions for the research, it was sought in the historical and dialectical materialism the theoretical and methodological contributions to understand the concrete reality guided by the social, class, job and education relations present in the Brazilian context. From this perspective the investigation identified in the studied reality the categories contradiction, mediation and totality. Following this analysis conception the right to education in its direct relation to the educational policies materialized itself in the formation reference of PNAIC (formation notebooks, official documents), which through the bibliographical research was possible to highlight the relation between the theoretical reference about education, right to education, right to learning, educational public policies and the role of the State in the Brazilian reality. Therefore, according to the carried out analysis it was verified advances and contributions, as well as obstacles and limitations due to the capitalist way of production, that expresses in the perpetuation of a society divided in classes, based in principles that end up minimizing the right to education and the right to learning, and so, the education is determined by the logic of forming labor force for capital by opposing the individual’s social, political and human emancipation.
