摘要:The present work aims to analyze the historical characterization of the work category within the capitalist society and its implications on the education system of countries such as Brazil.It responds to the objective of elucidating how the world of work is organized and transmuted historically, as well as indicate educational models and proposals that these changes require of education.Methodologically, it is structured from the bibliographic review based on a dialecticaltheoretical exercise.The work allows us to perceive that the characterizations and disciplines required by the capital world to work imply, consequently, reformist requirements for the field of education, making it possible to perceive the continuous application of a reformist apparatus in education, necessary for the individual's formative adequacy in the face of the new demands of the world of work.
