Abstract

This article analyzes the political and educational dimensions of Antonio Gramsci’s proposal of a unitary school, understanding it from the totality in which it occurs: the class struggle and the construction of the hegemony of the proletariat. It challenges the analyses that somehow depoliticize Gramsci’s educational proposal by divesting it of its revolutionary purpose. The author believes that Gramsci saw in the construction of a unitary school linked to work an important tool for the task of breaking with the division of knowledge imposed by class society. Thus, based on a review and analysis of notebook # 12, “Notes and Loose Jottings for a Group of Essays on the History of Intellectuals”, this article identifi es in the unitary schoolevidence that the adoption of the unitary principle is necessarily connected to the abolition of the dichotomy between manual and intellectual work and the division between leaders and led.;Key words: education, unitary school, politics, hegemony, Gramsci.
