Dream and Utopia: the school between accusations, dangers and freedoms

Abstract

Young professionals from different fields, particularly those focused on Education, advocate for the dream as something that can change education itself. In fact, in Brazilian society, advocacy for dreams has gained increased importance, as evidenced by the insights of experts on this subject. Based on theoretical references about Utopia and Dreams and informed by a documentary, a film and a teachers' movement, this article draws two inferences: first, schools can hardly deny people’s dreams, which forces them to make space for them; The second concerns the fact that the proponents of this discussion need to improve their analytical instruments, otherwise they risk jeopardizing the educational process.
