O lugar do sistema apostilado no contexto da conservação dos processos ideopolíticos da ordem social capitalista

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of the Sistema Apostilado de Ensino (SAE, Booklet-Based Teaching System) in the context of preserving the ideological and political processes of the capitalist social order. It is based on the understanding that education, situated within a capitalist society, is permeated by political, ideological, and, above all, economic disputes that influence its organization and social function. The general objective is to conduct a theoretical analysis of the Booklet-Based Teaching System and its relationship with capitalist logic in education, seeking to understand its foundations, its implications for teaching practice, and its influence on the reproduction of educational inequalities. The research is qualitative in nature and is based on bibliographic and documentary analysis, drawing on the contributions of authors such as Dermeval Saviani, Gaudêncio Frigotto, Vitor Henrique Paro, Luiz Carlos de Freitas, José Contreras, Paulo Freire and Pablo Gentili. The findings indicate that the booklet-based system goes beyond serving as a simple teaching resource, emerging as an instrument aligned with market interests, curricular standardization, and the control of the pedagogical process. Furthermore, this model is shown to limit teachers' autonomy, reinforce technicist practices, and contribute to the reproduction of social and educational inequalities. It is concluded that overcoming this logic requires valuing teachers' autonomy, democratic school governance, and an education committed to comprehensive, critical, and emancipatory human development.
