FUNDEB AND EDUCATIONAL INEQUALITY IN MUNICIPALITIES IN THE STATE OF PARANÁ

Authorship SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

ABSTRACT

Brazilian Federal Constitution elects as one of the objectives of the Republic the reduction of social and regional inequalities, and education is one of the variables with the greatest explanatory power for Brazilian inequality. However, if the financing of basic education in the states and municipalities reproduces the existing inequalities, this conjuncture will hardly be changed. Considering the end of the validity of Fundeb, in 2020, it is opportune that the country discusses to what extent a new fund should consider criteria for reducing social and educational inequality. It is analyzed, in this paper, whether Fundeb is a tool for the reduction of inequality, both in regional terms and within a single state of the Federation, considering the case study of Paraná.
