A história no ensino médio combatendo a apatia política e os mecanismos de conservação do cenário político atual

Abstract

Why political education and citizenship in Brazil do not go together? Perhaps political apathy is stimulated to the "necessary" current maintenance of the Brazilian political scene; and, possibly, the lack of interest in modifying the picture is part of a conservation mechanism of the panorama led by an influential minority that benefits from this circumstance. History has little importance if it is limited to prescribing content, without imagining ways and means to involve the actors of the teaching-learning process: to bring them to the historical time of the lesson; motivate them to assume themselves as subjects of historical knowledge. In fact, one should try to establish the link between history teaching and student social experience, exploring the variations in temporalities, the status of historical narrative in relation to other types of narrative, and the relation between History and otherness in the past and present .
