Resumo: | This article presents a theoretical reflection on the role of the formal education in the society and modern organizations. It reveals, initially, the intrinsic relation between the bureaucratic model and modernity. After that, it shows the understanding of the social stratification theories on the thematic (to the classic - Marx and Weber – for the contemporary vision - since Parsons). This paper presents the reading that Parsons made of the weberian theory, that took to the meritocratic hypothesis - social stratification systems walk, in result of the modernization processes, for permeteble structures, with lesser levels of intergeracional status transmission. They are presented critical to this hypothesis, questioning the role of education as equaliser of social opportunities. Such critical ones, based in the perspective of the social reproduction, credencialism, conception of the education as an institution, and in the theory of social capital, stand out the fact of that family and social origin attributes do not have lost importance in the modern society. Such conclusion shows that other elements, that not only those related to the individual effort and the merit (e.g. education) are important in the organizations. |
