Por uma nova universidade?: interculturalidade e diversidade nas relações entre professores e alunos

Abstract

We relate the debates on the insertion of different social subjects in higher education and the national policies that aim to expand courses and open new openings. We analyze the data released by the Higher Education Census from a decolonial perspective, seeking to understand which different profile shave integrated Higher Education and how these new profiles can help us establish intercultural social spaces. The research is qualitative in nature and indicates the increase of people with disabilities, black and brown people, and people with low income at this level of education. We debate the categories of insertion and inclusion, given the increase in drop out rates, indicating that intercultural experiences enable the dialogical interaction between different individuals in the same social space, questioning the differences and social asymmetries that legitimize some groups and make others subordinate, thus constituting a new university.
