ANTUNES, Fátima e PERONI, Vera. State reforms and public policies: Pathways of democratization and privatization in education. Brazil and Portugal, a dialogue between research studies. Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2017, vol.30, n.1, pp.181-216. ISSN 0871-9187. https://doi.org/10.21814/rpe.7399.
On the basis of concrete empirical research trajectories, the article addresses how the State relates to the private sector regarding education, and what the implications to democratization and the right to education in Brazil and Portugal are. The ways and the meanings in which the State takes on new roles are analysed, keeping public funding in some cases, whereas in others the funding is private; in some situations public power remains in control and in others private actors take the direction and control of the policies. In this sense, the growing centrality of education in public policies seems to correspond, among other phenomena, to an expansion of educational responses and of the populations concerned, accompanied by the multiplication of the modalities of privatization and commodification of education. It is concluded that the market logic has actively participated in the direction and execution of educational policies, with serious consequences for the process of democratization.
