Análise do discurso sobre a laicidade (não) presente nos cenários educacionais e sociais no Brasil

Abstract

Discussions around the Secular State gained strength in the media and everyday spaces in the post-military regime period and are still weak when compared to the strength of neoliberal partisan political groups that reaffirm the need for a Christian Religious Education. Therefore, this article intends to analyze the Subject-Position of the discourse of the Federal Congressman Jair Messias Bolsonaro in an interview given to the TV channel Menorah in 2017. On that occasion, the politician addressed the issue of Religious Education in Brazil's public schools. To develop this study, we used the theoretical-analytical device of Discourse Analysis proposed by Michel Pêcheux (1969) and Eni Orlandi (2012). The contributions of Domingos (2009), Cunha (2017) and Cury (2018) promoted the discussions around the Secular State and Religious Teaching in the school space as indicated by the analyses that should appear as a space of religious diversity.
