Políticas Itinerantes de Educação e a Reestruturação da Profissão Docente: o papel das cúpulas da OCDE e sua recepção no contexto brasileiro

Abstract

The article discusses the relationship between traveling education policies and the reconfiguration of the teaching profession. Based on documentary research and literature review, we sought to understand how specific narratives about the school and the teachers are being built by specific actors who put into circulation a set of documents, research reports and production of statistical data that contain a speech that spreads internationally through multiple dissemination strategies. The main material discussed here is the analysis of the documents produced by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), in particular the documents produced for the International Summits on the Teaching Profession. The objective is to understand how the research corpus in the field of education constructs its objects and arguments, especially with regard to the reconfiguration of the teaching profession as it has been defined in the discourse that emanates from international organizations. The article is divided into three parts: the first is dedicated to discussing the circulation of education policies at the international level, its main actors and instruments; the second provides a description and analysis of the material collected; and the third and last part addresses the circulation and reception of recommendations in the Latin American and Brazilian context.
