The Right to Education and its Relationship with Security in Social Law

Abstract

The objective of this article is to reflect on the Right to Education and its relationship with the Social Right to Security. We understand that the right to education as a fundamental human right stands out in the Brazilian scenario, as it promotes and elevates education to the status of the only process capable of making human beings human. This means that education is not only characterized as a human right, but is fundamentally its constitutive element. We realize that there is an increasingly growing need for security and, often, its non-existence in the school environment is a phenomenon that has attracted the attention of society, since the wide publicity given by the media of events related to this phenomenon ended up placing it in evidence. However, as citizens we need more than media coverage to build a position in the face of this discussion. In this sense, we seek through this work to broaden this debate. This research is justified by the opportunity to contribute to the debate about Educational Law as well as its applicability and effectiveness of this right in terms of contributing to national development and also reflecting on the Social Right to Safety in the School Environment.
