Alfabetização no Brasil: Conjecturas sobre as relações entre políticas públicas e seus sujeitos privados

Abstract

The complex and controversial issues concerning the formulation, implementation and evaluation of public policies for education in Brazil in recent decades have been the object of important studies and research. As a result, a significant body of knowledge has already been amassed on this subject, which has brought about advances in the debate and made possible new research and studies on increasingly more specific aspects involved in the issue. With the aim of contributing to this debate, the article presents conjectures with regard to the relationship between state public sectors, resulting specifically from the new type of partnership between state public organs and researchers in education from public universities, for formulating, implementing and evaluating public policy for literacy, starting in the 1980s and emphasized from the 1990s onwards, related to the reform of the Brazilian state.
