BNCC AND CURRICULAR REFORMISM IN BRAZIL IN THE CONTEXT OF THE NEOLIBERAL

Abstract

This work aims to indicate the link of the curricular reform, formalized in the proposal of the National Curriculum Common Core (known in Brazil by the acronym BNCC – Base Nacional Comum Curricular), with the set of curricular reforms in progress in Brazil, since the 1988 Constitution, as a requirement of reform of the Brazilian State in the context of the neoliberal political-economic agenda.The purpose is, therefore, to indicate the characterizations required of the BNCC in the context of an educational reform agenda faithful to the hegemonic market order. Methodologically, the work is structured from materialist dialectics with theoretical support in Gramsci’s concept of hegemony. The research identifi es the curricular reforms underway in Brazil, including the current reform expressed in the BNCC, both in the context of improving the limits of the neoliberal agenda for education, and in deepening the relationship between work mediated by the capital expressed by the hegemony of the logic of market, as well as schooling itself as a private reproduction apparatus of this hegemony.
