Resumo: | The work analyzes the grounding of the concept of polytechnicalism in Mozambican education, according to the political project proposed by the Mozambican Liberation Front (FRELIMO), which defended the establishment of a socialist nation in that country. Defined in the official documents as a translation of the pedagogical principle of the connection between theory and practice, between school and work, polytechnicalism should permeate the whole process of schooling, and aimed at giving students the basis to understand reality, assimilating scientific knowledge, and transforming nature and society. In terms of methodology, the work comprised a theoretical survey of the literature on the emergence of the concept of polytechnicalism, and the understanding of this concept in Marx and Lenin, as well as in the Russian workers movement. Official documents, articles, books, and the results of related research on the Mozambican "socialist" education were also investigated. In its empirical part, the study included interviews with intellectuals that were involved with Mozambican education during the period in question (1983-1992) in the city of Maputo; these interviews were conducted between January and March 2005. From the analysis of the data collected and interviews carried out, the study allowed the conclusion that, firstly, there is a difference between the grounding of the conception of polytechnic education as it appears in the Mozambican pedagogical proposal, and those of Marx or Lenin. Secondly, that the understanding of the concept of polytechnicalism in Mozambique was limited, and that the socialist discourse that attended Mozambican education was contradictory. |

O trabalho analisa a fundamentação do conceito de politecnia na educação moçambicana, de acordo com o projeto político proposto pela Frente de Libertação de Moçambique (Frelimo), que preconizava a instauração de uma sociedade socialista nesse país. Definida nos documentos oficiais como tradução do princípio pedagógico de ligação entre a teoria e a prática, entre a escola e o trabalho, a politecnia deveria permear todo o processo de formação escolar e visava propiciar aos alunos bases para compreender a realidade, assimilar o conhecimento científico e transformar a natureza e a sociedade. Metodologicamente, foi realizada uma pesquisa teórica, revisando a bibliografia sobre o surgimento do conceito de politecnia, o entendimento deste em Marx, Lênin e no movimento operário russo. Também foram consultados documentos oficiais, artigos, livros e resultados de pesquisas sobre a educação socialista moçambicana que focassem o propósito da pesquisa. Empiricamente, realizaram-se entrevistas com intelectuais que estiveram envolvidos com a educação moçambicana no período recortado (1983-1992), na cidade de Maputo, entre janeiro e março de 2005. Da análise de dados e do conteúdo das entrevistas, conclui-se, primeiro, que existe uma diferença na fundamentação da concepção de educação politécnica na proposta pedagógica de Moçambique em relação às propostas sejam de Marx e Lênin. Segundo, que o entendimento do conceito de politecnia em Moçambique foi limitado e que o discurso socialista que acompanhou a educação moçambicana foi contraditório. Universidade de São Paulo.

The work analyzes the grounding of the concept of polytechnicalism in Mozambican education, according to the political project proposed by the Mozambican Liberation Front (FRELIMO), which defended the establishment of a socialist nation in that country. Defined in the official documents as a translation of the pedagogical principle of the connection between theory and practice, between school and work, polytechnicalism should permeate the whole process of schooling, and aimed at giving students the basis to understand reality, assimilating scientific knowledge, and transforming nature and society. In terms of methodology, the work comprised a theoretical survey of the literature on the emergence of the concept of polytechnicalism, and the understanding of this concept in Marx and Lenin, as well as in the Russian workers movement. Official documents, articles, books, and the results of related research on the Mozambican "socialist" education were also investigated. In its empirical part, the study included interviews with intellectuals that were involved with Mozambican education during the period in question (1983-1992) in the city of Maputo; these interviews were conducted between January and March 2005.
