Synopsis – [Power and Participation in Education]. The present book brings together a collection of texts selected by the author, written in the context of his active participation in debates on Portuguese educational policy in the first half of the 1990s. Addressing various themes, the texts assembled have a common denominator: the issue of power and participation in education. At a time when there is a lively debate about the processes of change in massified school systems across the board, the book takes a stance closer to that of a practitioner than an academic who observes education policies from the outside. By taking this risk, the author hopes to contribute, albeit modestly, to broadening the debate on education policies in Portugal.
