The fear of the resignification of the theme Public Education Funding in the current Brazilian scenario

Abstract

Public Education Funding constitutes an area with dispute of power, where the weakest part, the financed, are the ones that have no say. In the current Brazilian scenario of the financial recession, it is a matter of urgency to reflect on the issues that are involved in this theme, otherwise we run the risk of losing financial resources that until then, after a history of struggle, was present in the public budget of various governmental spheres. In this context, we deepen this discussion, raising some historical, budgetary and educational aspects and propose a critical reflection on the theme. The aim is to characterize the theme of Public Funding as one of the main pillars of support for a public education able to combat the immobility that settled between the dominant power and the financed and to raise a revolutionary banner of discussion on the subject proposed here and its responsibility with Public Basic Education, seen as a political act.
