Publisher's Synopsis
The aim of this book is to discuss the influence of managerialism and performativity in Brazilian educational management. The research carried out to produce this book shows the emergence and expansion of managerialism in Brazilian public administration, which came about through the Reform of the State, based on the rationalisation of work and the commercialisation of administrative processes. It is in this context of state reform and the modernisation of public administration that Brazilian educational management has been implementing public policies in line with the managerial model present in several countries around the world over the last few decades. This book is aimed at students, teachers, education managers and other professionals interested in understanding Brazilian public education today.
