Resumo: Education is often seen as a solution to democratic deficits, but its role in shaping political attitudes is still poorly understood. This article investigates the association between schooling and adherence to democracy in São Paulo. Departing from a representative sample of 2,417 interviews, our analysis of the São Paulo context is shown to be timely for the study, since the city performs well in educational assessments and has a relevant history of political engagement. Using hierarchical regression models, it was found that schooling is a significant predictor of adherence to democracy, with higher levels of schooling correlating to greater adherence. Our results differ from the findings of other studies that consider Brazil as a whole. We find that access to higher education is a key factor for the valorization of democracy.

Este artículo investiga la asociación entre escolaridad y adhesión a la democracia en São Paulo. A partir de una muestra representativa con 2.417 entrevistas, el análisis del contexto paulistano se muestra oportuno, ya que la ciudad tiene mejores notas en las evaluaciones educativas y tiene una historia relevante de participación política. Utilizando modelos de regresión jerárquica, se encontró que la escolaridad es un predictor significativo de la adherencia a la democracia, mientras que los niveles más altos de escolaridad se asocian con una mayor adherencia. Los resultados difieren de los hallazgos de otros estudios que consideran a Brasil en su conjunto, lo que sugiere que el acceso a la educación superior es un factor clave para la valorización de la democracia.A educação é frequentemente vista como solução para déficits democráticos, mas seu papel nas atitudes políticas ainda é pouco compreendido.

Utilizando modelos hierárquicos de regressão, encontrou-se que a escolaridade é um preditor significativo da adesão à democracia, ao passo que níveis mais altos de escolaridade estão associados a uma maior adesão. Os resultados divergem de achados de outros trabalhos que consideram o Brasil como um todo: ao contrário deles, encontramos que o acesso à educação superior é um fator-chave para a valorização da democracia.Universidade Estadual de Campinas2023-05-08info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoTextoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/op/article/view/8673352Opinião Pública; Vol. 29 No. 1 (2023): jan./abr.; 102-132Opinião Pública; Vol. 29 Núm. 1 (2023): jan./abr.; 102-132Opinião Pública; v. 29 n. 1 (2023): jan./abr.; 102-1321807-0191reponame:Opinião Pública (Online)instname:Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)instacron:UNICAMPporhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/op/article/view/8673352/31896Brazil; ContemporaryBrasil; ContemporáneoBrasil; ContemporâneoCopyright (c) 2023 Opinião Públicahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Diego MoraesKemer, ThaiseMont'Alverne , Camila2023-05-08T18:27:26Zoai:ojs.periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br:article/8673352Revistahttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/opPUBhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/op/oaicesop@unicamp.br||racael@unicamp.br || rop@unicamp.br1807-01910104-6276opendoar:2023-05-08T18:27:26Opinião Pública (Online) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)false
