Publisher's Synopsis
This work aims to contribute to the process of training and working with education professionals by projecting itself as a possible research alternative, exposing the steps of a degree course in the face of technical rationality. There is a lot of talk about the limitations of Brazilian education, the unevenness of study areas, which implies that some areas are undervalued; inadequate classrooms and buildings in teaching and learning institutions; insufficient funds to maintain courses and schools. This text presents ways of pointing out that the limitations mentioned are not the result of chance, but of a rationality that, as well as legitimising compromising contradictions, encourages what is understood as coercion in education.
