Abstract

SILVA JUNIOR, João dos Reis. The professor and researcher in brazilian public university in the context of the internationalization of capital: the produtivity of the highly qualified immaterial labor. Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2009, vol.22, n.1, pp.145-177. ISSN 0871-9187.

The article’s purpose is to understand the mercantilist process of the Brazilian public university and its institutional identity. We aim at understanding this event as a process of social streamlining, with origin at the reformed state and as a part of the legacy of the twentieth century with links to the internationalization of capitalism, which ended as a target of the naturalization of the public fund by capital, and resulting in the reforms of the Brazilien republican intitutions. The university, not without opposition from social, political and trade union movements and from intellectuals who still resist, is being transformed into an institution ruled by the capital and the state, with the market as a mediator. The market rationality has become the core of the policy (which should be the public administration directed for human being), with perverse consequences for the popular democratic government, which is distant from its origin, for the more critic intellectual thinking, to the left parties, for research on higher education public policy, but, over all, for the object that matters here: the activities and training of the teacher and the researcher of the public state universities in general. In addition, it is intended to show that the process of rationalization in its current historical form has as also historical essence the rationality of the social capitalism formation and it indirectly shows the course of this event.

Keywords : Higher Education Reform; Teaching formation; Alienation in the Teaching Work; Ontology in the Teaching Work.
