Abstract

This article is a part of a wider research, the aim of which is to discuss the history and political clashes of professors' unionism in Latin America. Thus, this paper focuses on some aspects of the professors union organization in Brazil and takes as its focus the entities linked to the Sao Paulo state universities, seeking to understand the role of those unions and associations from a socio-historical perspective. It is also proposed the analysis of the political clashes and agency with educators in the years 1990-2010, a period marked by government policies for reform of the State in general and of the university in particular. Therefore, this research is placed in the field of critical social history of education, trying to contribute to the production of knowledge revealing the actions, struggles and questions presented by university unionists to effective educational models, thus stimulating the reflections that make possible the convergence of their political and social purposes.
