The university reform of 1968 49 years later

Active consequences in higher education

Abstract

This article will discuss the importance of clearly recognizing all the dynamics of the forces that were active in the early years of the military dictatorship that took place in Brazil, with particular emphasis on the period of 1968. An indelible mark in Brazilian historiography, it was during this period that one of the most arrogant Political-ideological persecutions. Obviously, education was not left out of the governmental approach, since the figure of the school director was legally instrumented to act with all rigors against even the most puerile form of contestation to the regime implanted in March of 1964.

Key words: education, censorship, military dictatorship, school.
