Democratic School Management:

This book is the result of a study whose general aim was to understand the concepts and guidelines of the process of implementing democratic school management within the public education system, in terms of the links with what is prescribed and systematised in educational legislation. Considering the direct relationship between public education policies and reality in the school environment, from the perspective of the concept of democratic management (GADOTTI, 2003) and the emancipated subject in the education process (FREIRE, 1987). In this context, this book aims to subsidise managers so that they can promote democratic management in the school environment, which will foster the development of all subjects in the educational process, and the school will be the granary for fostering and transforming the emancipated subject, generating reflective managers, educators and students and, at the same time, a democratic and liberating society.
