SUMMARY:

This dissertation assumes the perspective that universal access to education is not enough to overcome educational and social inequalities of origin (COLEMAN, 1966; BOURDIEU and PASSERON, 1982; CASSASSUS, 2002; BROOKE & SOARES, 2008; COLEMAN, 2011). In order to achieve this, it is necessary to deliberately adopt mechanisms that correct inequalities, specifically equalizing principles that could produce positive discrimination by giving more advantages to those who are at a disadvantage and, thus, to promote social justice in the school environment with the consequent reverberations for society as a whole, aiming at real equality (RAWLS, 1971; DUBET, 2001, 2004, 2008; CRAHAY, 2002, 2013). Based on this theoretical and normative discussion, we have the following research question: what principles or visions of justice are contained in the design of educational programs in Brazil and how are they are operationalized at the time of implementation? To answer this question, a double objective was established: to analyze the institutional design of a set of programs executed by the National Education Development Fund (FNDE) as well as to analyze the relationship between the formulation and implementation of a specific program, Proinfância, in the municipality of Natal, in order to verify how the principles mobilized in the institutional design are reflected or not in the execution of this policy. Methodologically, a qualitative approach was adopted to review the bibliography on principles of justice from the classical discussion of political philosophy as well as justice at school, in addition, document analysis and semi-structured interviews with managers and former managers of FNDE and the Municipal Secretariat of Education of Natal were carried out. Statistical analyses explore data and information on Proinfância. The main results show that within the set of programs analyzed in this dissertation, there is a predominance of the principle of justice as equality meanwhile in only some of them there is the incorporation of principles of justice as equity for the correction of inequalities. With regard to the implementation of Proinfância in the municipality of Natal, it was possible to notice that, although nursing schools were built with program resources in areas of high social vulnerability, the principles of correction of inequalities designed at the time of formulation could not be fully fulfilled at implementation due to difficulties of translating these guidelines to bureaucrats at the local administrative level and, especially, related to other operational difficulties that can only be known at the time of implementation. The main bottlenecks pointed out by managers were: the difficulties in building nursing schools due to the existence of few construction companies willing to execute the project, difficulties connected to resource transfers, and the recurrent problem of lack of proof of dominance (irregular landing registers) of public land.
