The present work proposes a critical and interdisciplinary theoretical mobilization that allows analyzing the meanings and repercussions of the Escola Sem Partido project in the educational field. More than sharing mistaken views about education and the educational process, the project has demonstrated its ability to articulate diffuse social demands that gain strength and equipment in political spaces. Through an educational, cultural, political and philosophical analysis of the project, we appropriated critical references – in particular Walter Benjamin – that can contribute to formulate a contemporary diagnosis about the nature of authoritarian thinking that permeates the educational system. The analyzes indicate that the movement in support of the project contributes, consciously or not, to the legitimization of a state of exception through policies that undermine institutional and democratic coexistence mediations, removing the rights of the population, instead of guaranteeing them and expand them. We conclude that it is necessary to echo the unheard echoes of the victims of history - - in this case, teachers, students and the entire society impacted by the project's ideas -, making the current state of emergency a context of struggle and resistance against the Escola Sem Partido and sustaining new horizons of social transformation aimed at the collective and emancipatory good.
