A violência na sociedade e na educação em Marx e Engels

Abstract

The core theme of this work is the intensification of violence in today’s capitalistic society. The theme is presented on the screen, through the articulation between the two main objects of our question - structural violence in bourgeois society and education. The examination and analysis of these objects are done within the programmatic script of Marx and Engels. A large bibliography of the authors is used, in which one can find elaborations that satisfy the clarification and the resolution of the problematic that worries the author of these research. The precise objectives of this doctoral thesis are to know, fundamentally, over who falls the violence in bourgeois society. And how can one recognize the nature of violence education at school? The worsening violence around the world is a risky situation. These research shows how civil bourgeois society arises with violence. And as in our day, the economic state, of the exclusive interest of the dominant bourgeois, by the production of surplus value, profit and accumulation of capital, perpetuates violence by exploiting labor under the wage system. This means that violence is inherent in the capitalist mode of production. This implies the exercise of it in the whole social structure, reaffirmed in the power of the State, and logically expanded to the constituent elements of civil society, as in the case of educational school. The present research is based on an immanent reading of the Marx-Engelsian theory. It is, thus, a theoretical work. However, it deals also, of course, with the epiphanies of violence today, its empirical observation. Therefore, this research and its results are constructed, according to a development and realization that imply a critical relationship between the theoretical elaborations of reference and the factual material researched itself. The aim is to have the necessary and sufficient scientific support that must help us to check out if bourgeois society is structurally violent. It stands up by violence and, at the same time, needs violence to expand itself. And, in this way, discourses of a merely philosophical, political, administrative, bureaucratic, or moral nature are here deconstructed, especially when they intend to correct or solve the problem of violence in today’s Brazilian society and its educational system. It is thought that it is only through a structural transformation of the world, aimed at the formation of free and universal human individuals, within a framework of na alternative sociability -communism - that arises the concrete possibility of na egalitarian and fraternal society and education in which the individuals could be raised to their legitimate human title.
