This qualitative and bibliographic article aims to reflect on the correlations between democratic education, human emancipation and civic-military training, based on the Critical Theory of Society. Under the premise that democratic education assumes the realization of a fair and equal society for all, of free and emancipated men, it resumes the trajectory of the struggle for the democratization of the education in Brazil, to emphasize on the advances of this process that enters the 21st century under a strong threat of setbacks. In order to elucidate the setback, an analysis of the National Program for Civic-Military Schools (PECIM in Portuguese) is presented. The results of the analysis point to the defense of a training perspective that aligned with neoliberal policies and conservatism, contradicts the formation of the human and compromises the democratization of the school, making education with an emancipatory meaning uncertain. KEYWORDS: Critical Theory. Democratic Education. Emancipation. Civic-military Formation.
