A desigualdade enquanto expressão da questão social: um debate necessário no sistema educacional

Abstract

The Brazilian educational system needs to be thought of beyond the student versus knowledge relationship, since this relationship is crossed by several issues such as, for example, the inequalities faced by them, that of a one way or another, they end up being taken to everyday school life. The research that culminated in this article aimed to analyze whether there is an understanding of the social issue in the education system, in order to give visibility to the discussion of inequalities in the school environment. Therefore, a qualitative bibliographic research was carried out with mapping of articles taken from the Scielo portal. Content analysis was performed, with the critical dialectical method being the guiding thread of the reality analysis. From the analysis of the articles, it was noticed that situations experienced in schools lead to the recognition of various inequalities, such as class exploitation, the most varied forms of violence, racism, precariousness of teaching, among others. However, in most cases these realities are not correlated with macro-social issues. The contextualization of these inequalities as expressions arising from the social issue proved to be derisory, therefore, rarely found in the basic texts mapped for this study. Different practices for confronting these inequalities are reported in the texts, but most of them focus singularly on each problem. Although they are important actions, they do not seek correlations with the social issue, nor do they correlate them with an unequal production system, which avoids overcoming these inequalities in a concrete way.
