Abstract

Unification or diversification? Some notes on the evolution of secondary school in Portugal, 1970-1990. Portuguese society has had a belated developpment of its mass schooling and this fact helps to explain the process of expansion of secondary school net during the 70s, 80s and even 90s.
The secondary school 70's reforms expressed the dominant concern about the links between education and democracy, and based on the reproductor character of social inequalities of educational system. The 80s reforms focussed on the fight for school-system unification. By the 80s the axe "school-labour market" took precedence over the 70s reforms axe "education-democracy".
