SECADI EXTINCTION: THE DENIAL OF THE RIGHT TO EDUCATION (FOR AND WITH DIVERSITY)

Abstract

From the point of view of guaranteeing rights, the Secretariat for Continuing Education, Literacy, Diversity and Inclusion (SECADI) represented an important advance in giving visibility to subjects historically silenced and excluded from the educational process. However, its extinction in 2016 highlights the educational project anchored and in dialogue with the neoliberal and conservative political agenda, which not only disregards the entire path of struggle and guarantee of rights covered until then, but trivializes and erases historical memory of the subjects for whom SECADI's actions and programs were intended. In this sense, the present study aims to develop a theoretical analytical framework about the extinction of SECADI in order to highlight the attacks on education in times of the extreme right. Methodologically, the study adopts the molds of bibliographic theoretical research of a qualitative nature having as an empirical field the political events that occurred between the years 2015 and 2016 anchoring analytically in the concept of scenes by Rancière (2012). From the study undertaken, it is concluded that the exclusion of SECADI meant the invisibility and naturalization of differences, representing, therefore, the denial of the right to education (for and with diversity).
