Educação para o empreendedorismo como estratégia para formar um trabalhador de novo tipo

Abstract

Entrepreneurship and its link in the education field has had increased significance in the last years, with the ample proof through the expressive growth of research and project development aiming at educating towards entrepreneurship and training a new kind of worker, the one who is able to selfproduce its own existence. Training of the worker/entrepreneur with the innovative, creative and proactive profile and spirit, able to create its own business or to act as if the owner of the organization establishes the social role of the individual that is abstracted from structural determinations, especially in the current capitalist economic order. This approach needs to be questioned: what does it mean, after all, to educate towards entrepreneurship and to whom this approach matters? Centered in the historical materialism and dialectic referential, this text tries to analyze how the elaboration of this entire ideology of the entrepreneur being has been and is being instituted in the education setting, as well as presenting and analyzing this formulation, in the search of the implicit meaning of the need to educate towards entrepreneurship.
