Movimento estudantil em Serviço Social: desafios de ontem e de hoje

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to understand the Student Movement of Social Work (MESS) and what are its challenges posed in the contemporary world, based on the understanding that MESS composes the main organizational categories of Social Work together with the Brazilian Association for Teaching and Research in Social Work (ABEPSS) and the CFESS / CRESS Set. It has been noticed that the participation of students in the basic representation spaces such as the Academic Centers and directories has decreased considerably in recent years. Our goal is to understand this process of demobilization and disarticulation of students in the spaces of student organization and representation. The dialectical method led to the construction of this work. Documentary research was the methodological procedure adopted. To this end, books, articles and works were used as a basis, offering subsidies to unveil the current situation and its implications for MESS. At first, we will analyze the performance of the student movement in the difficult situation that the country was experiencing during the military dictatorship. The questions we intend to solve are: what are the possible explanations for the lethargy movement that afflicts us? what are the impacts of this process for MESS? In the first chapter, from a cold war context, we will discuss the domination of the United States over underdeveloped countries as an example the countries of Latin America, the manifestations of the French May 68 and their cultural impacts. We will take this path to understand the dictatorial processes suffered in Latin American countries and the impacts on resistance movements and combating the dictatorship with special emphasis on the student movement. Finally, we will approach the construction of the Brazilian Social Work renovation movement, locating the student movement in the construction of the Political Ethical Project (PEP). In the second chapter, we will deal with education policies in the Fernando Henrique Cardoso (FHC) and Lula governments, with emphasis on the policies of the Lula government and their impacts on the formation of the working class and access to the University. In sequence, we will end with the days of June 2013, its repercussions on Brazilian politics and the growth of right-wing organizations both in social networks and organized as social movements, the uprising against former President Dilma Rousseff, concluding with the impeachment process.
