Abstract

Through analyzing the "All for Education" Movement (TPE), this research presents the elements necessary to understanding the process of building a hegemonic project for the Brazilian nation in which public education occupies a strategic role. The analysis focuses on the business class's role in policy formulation and social mobilization. We examine the extent to which the actions and policies of the TPE create a new configuration of the public sphere. To this end, we analyze the TPE's significance as a new social force that combines public, private and popular demands and proposals for education as a means to become a central player in political disputes currently shaping Brazil. In the course of the research, we observed the TPE relying on powerful communication backed by solid technical support to advance its positions and proposals with a high degree of articulation within all three branches of the state's power. Finally, the form in which the TPE was structured - a pact between entrepreneurs, the service sector and the government - contributes to the blurring of class conflict and class divisions, making the understanding of reality more complex, especially regarding the tenuous line between the public and the private, and making the distinction between social rights and individual rights less clear. This group's proposals contribute to maintaining the possibility of aligning market practices with social justice as a means to integrate and promote agreements for supposed common interests between different social classes.
