Profissionalização de pobres em escolas católicas do Rio de Janeiro no século XIX

Abstract

Two Catholic schools, founded in the final decades of the Brazilian Empire, were specifically vocational: Escola Doméstica Nossa Senhora do Amparo, female, founded in Petrópolis and Escola Santa Rosa, male, founded in Niterói. The analysis sought to observe the type of professionalization proposed in the context of the transition from slave labor to free labor and the development of an urban-industrial society. A bibliographic research, with sources pointed out by publications specific to these schools, allows us to observe, in the history they narrate, the questions proposed by the article that included some pedagogical factors that could intervene in the education of the worker, in the type of professionalization offered, in the view of poverty and disadvantage for aid for charity and its intersection with education projects or their absence. With Marshall (1967) and Carvalho (2015) we seek to place this school trajectory in the context of the formulation of the social right to education and with Paul Ricoeur (2010), to understand the bases of the educational intervention proposal for the new working relationship that was in the expectation society of the moment.
