ABSTRACT
The text seeks to investigate the relationship between the Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (Coordination of Superior Level Staff Improvement) evaluation system and teacher education in Brazil, based on a philosophy of education inspired by the theories of Habermas and Honneth. It interprets the evaluation system according to the logic that associates the knowledge/power binomial according to the knowledge production of the modern technological paradigm. With this, the emphasis is on the competition for results, disregarding the immersion in the collaborative process of production. It thus contributes to a growing instrumentalization of the world of life, which highlights the development of technicality in all spheres of life. The philosophy of education contributes to indicate possible ruptures with this model marked by the growing demand, linked to the production-consumption nexus, collaborating with the creation of a democratic society that accentuates the responsibility in relation to the processes of construction of citizenship.
