A universidade pública brasileira e a gestão do trabalho docente: “a profissionalização da docência nos cursos de licenciatura das IFES mineiras"

Abstract

The research analyzes the reconstruction of the role of the Brazilian public university throughout the XXI century and more precisely in the last ten years, when a new model of public management was presented, with emphasis on the transformations that occurred in the management of teaching work, in the exercise Of teaching and in the training of research professors. Thus, the socio-historical context of this research dimension the development of contradictions between capitalist society and the world of work. The projects of university reform were determinant in the conduction of alternatives and of deepening the ambiguities of the neoliberal model undertaken in the context of the public university. The paradox of scientific capital has diffused the status of globalized competent science and has weakened the generating force of scientific knowledge. However, we seek to investigate the conditions of teaching work and its consequences in teacher training, teaching planning, technological innovation and teacher identity. The main elements of theoretical problematization relate to the possibility of understanding the introduction of the call for training for work due to the incorporation of new production methods instead of manual labor. Thus, the loss of the working sense leads to the formation of new characteristics in the labor relations, evidencing the radicalization of the professionalization of teaching and the standardization of the teaching identity. In order to do so, we have used the critical approach of the classics of the theory of economics-politics, in order to seek analytical perspectives, support, deepening and thus contribute to the theoretical course of the research line. The empirical sample of the research counts on the participation of research professors from seven federal higher education institutions (IFES), committed to the profession of the teaching profession and in full exercise of their didacticpedagogical and / or managerial functions. The thesis, therefore, starts from the hypothesis that the new configurations of public management for the public university expanded and restructured managerial, entrepreneurial and utilitarian relationships with strong market trends, which had previously had significant impacts on the conditions of academic work.
