O ensino superior privado em Uberlândia: precarização do trabalho docente

Abstract

The goal of this dissertation is to bring to attention the precariousness of teaching work that has been developing in Brazilian private higher education institutions since the 1990 s, arguing its materialization in Uberlândia/MG in the last five years, especially in one of the higher education institutes within the city. Supported by the referencial Marxist theoretical-methodology, the research pressuposes that the conditions verified in these institutions are not examples that occur solely within the city limits, but products of the contradictions and dialectic interfaces existing between the transformations of the world of work and the human formation through the access to science, a path that allows the understanding of the process of precariousness of this human activity in the contemporary period.
