O Colégio Pedro II e o processo de equiparação aos Institutos Federais : transitando entre tradições, heranças e transformações

Abstract

This research investigates traditions, inheritances, ruptures and transformations in/from Colégio Pedro II - CPII with the process of assimilation to the Federal Institutes, identifying changes in the institutional structure from the publication of Law 12.677, of June 25, 2012. The work seeks to understand possible changes or permanence in power relations and levels of organizational culture of the CPII. Operating with Discourse Theorizations (LACLAU 1996, 1998, 2005, 2011; LACLAU E MOUFFE 2004; BURITY 2008), works with the perspective that the political game is constitutive of the social and that any social order is the result of the logic of equivalence and difference. Reflections are in a border zone (VALDEMARIN, 2010) between Education and Public Management, configuring a qualitative research. The work demonstrates that the configuration of the CPII structure itself changed after the equalization movement, showing traces and disputes between old ways of interpreting the institution and new perceptions. Some legacies resist time and are present even in the face of the modification process. There have been ruptures, but in a secular College, administrative and organizational changes strain old mentalities and face resistance.
