ROSSI, VERA LÚCIA SABONGI DE. A challenge to public school: take its own fate in hand. Cad. CEDES [online]. 2001, vol.21, n.55, pp. 92-107. ISSN 0101-3262.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0101-32622001000300007.

This text aims at reflecting upon some of the new regulating strategies ¾ of external demands for group work and participation in the educational system from parents, students and teachers ¾, hurriedly generalized as democratic arguments, that contribute to despoliticalize the school administration practices in public schools. The neoliberal strategies of restructuring the decision capacity of the educational system agents help the State lose its protagonist role in the Social Policies supposed to guarantee the essential services of education.

Keywords : Participative Group Work; Political-Pedagogical (co)Administration Practices.
