Abstract:

Abstract This article aims to reflect on the incidence of neoconservative ideals in the process of drafting mandatory national curricular policies for early childhood education, with an emphasis on the tension processes involved in the construction of the Common National Curricular Base. It is based on the assumption that educational policies have been characterized by the return of conservative guidelines brought by ultraliberal and neo-Pentecostal movements, contradicting all the scientific production that the field of early childhood education has produced in the last decades and threatening constitutional principles such as the secularity of the State and the plurality of ideas. Methodologically, this study was developed in a bibliographic and documentary manner. We conclude that the context of the rise to power by the New Right not an isolated process in Brazil and its ascendancy has led to the emergence of projects formulated by hegemonic groups whose end ultimately leads to a setback in educational curriculum policies for early childhood education.
