The duality of technique and intellect in the Vargas Era: focus on changes in scientific teaching as knowledge not integrated into social studies

There is a considerable volume of studies on educational projects and their role in maintaining the hegemonic order, analyzes on the role of education in the emancipation of the working class, and even propositional studies on the implementation of popular and liberating education projects. However, little has been explored regarding the social impacts resulting from the deepening of the technocratization of scientific content taught in schools. Through a bibliographic survey of a historical and investigative nature, this work sought to associate the various forms of teaching directed at the main economic poles of world history (from antiquity to modernity) with the political conjunctures and interests that delineated educational practices, with the main objective of expose the core of the dialectical relationship between science teaching and social formatting, focusing on educational reforms implemented in one of the most important historical periods for the consolidation of dependent capitalism in Brazil, under the determinations of Getúlio Vargas, having as object of analyze the programs of Colégio Pedro II in the period in question.
