Transformations in the World of Work and Educational Public Policy in Brazil

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This article aims to question the World Bank proposal published in 2018 of investment in human capital as a solution to the imminent structural unemployment resulting from the adoption of new technologies of robotics and artificial intelligence. Based on (1) the empirical analysis of the Brazilian labor market from the perspective of the evolution of the working class's educational credentials, (2) the impacts of new technologies on work and (3) the challenges arising from the metamorphoses experienced by the working class, the article concludes that it is opportune to reflect on an alternative of educational public policy that aims to develop a critical understanding of Brazilian society, taking into account not only the training for work, but, also for social and political action.
