RESUMO

The problem that this research raises is whether the most current analysis on the teaching work offer an adequate basis for the understanding of the reality of the teaching professionals. The central hypothesis is that those analysis, conducted on certain aspects of the educational practice and its relationship with society, in general, do not face in a deep manner the contradictions of the State and the capitalist social relations and their implications for the interpretation of the teaching work. They are analyses that are divided among those that prioritize the aspects of proletarization, gender and professional knowledge. The examination of the vicissitudes of such prospects was done through the study of articles published in two educational cientific magazines of national circulation: the Education &Society and Researchs Notebooks magazines. This study showed that those analysis are shaped according to the social and political context and to a public image of the teachers, dependents of recent alterations in the way of managing the State. A critical analysis of some of those approaches, based on the Marxian theory of the capital as a social relation, enabled to introduce aspects of the dynamics of capitals reproduction and, specifically, of the State-form. Through the mobilization of concepts such as abstract work and concrete work, productive and unproductive work, services, immaterial work, formal and real subsuntion of labour to capital, among others, it has developed a critique of the debates carried on in the Brazilians educational field, with which it is possible to understand the teaching work itself. Thus, the hypothesis raised was revealed to be true, since the examined analysis proved to be limited to conjunctural apprehensions, disregarding essentials determinations of the teaching work that result of a historic process linked to the development of school-form and the subordination of the teaching work to the State.
