Patriarcado, herança do seringal: presença do patrimonialismo no funcionalismo público

Abstract

This experience report addresses the manifestation of patrimonialism that occurred during the Supervised Internship II period, carried out in one of the State High Schools in the municipality of Carauari. It was observed how patriarchy, with its ramifications, was so deeply rooted in society and institutionalized that it is trivialized, perpetuating behavior detrimental to the impartiality of public service. Many historians and/or sociologists have based their studies on this theme; some are cited in this report. However, there is a wide range of researchers who address patriarchy and its various aspects. Studies intensified at the beginning of the 20th century by prominent figures such as Sérgio Buarque de Holanda, Gilberto Freyre, and Florestan Fernandes, among others. Numerous scholars of contemporary Social Sciences have contributed to expanding studies on this theme, which needs to be known and popularized among Brazilians from the early grades to university. In times of misinformation, or rather manipulated information, nothing is more urgent than helping the community access information directly from the source. Reading theorists and scholars to understand where we are in history and to allow future generations to break the vicious cycle in which we are trapped, where we are nothing more than a mass dominated/manipulated by oppressive ideologies, should be a priority in education today.
