Abstract:

This article analyzes high school education reform and its impact on the education project of those who work for a living. By analyzing Law 13.415/2017, recent statistics and the new proposal for curricular organization, arguments will be identified that point to the flexibilization of high school education as an expression of the pedagogical project of the flexible accumulation system, whose logic continues to be the unequal distribution of knowledge, but in a differentiated way. The aim is the formation of flexible subjectivities submitted to precarity of work, naturalizing instability, insecurity and deregulation for an alleged autonomy of choice. Ontologically, the article shows that high school education reform responds to aligning the formation of the flexible accumulation regime. In epistemological terms, it compares the conception of praxis that guided the drafting of the curricular directives in 2012 with the dimensions of individualism fragmentation, presentism and pragmatism therein. The author emphasizes the need to create other forms of curricular organization in the exercise of autonomy by choice as an alternative for the full qualification of young people who see possibilities of emancipation in the counter-hegemonic movement.
