The Brazilian legal system and professional and technological education (eft) as a public policy: the indissocibility between vicisttudes and socio-historic reverberations from an interdisciplinary study

The present article is the result of a qualification course in Professional and Technological Education (EFA) in Brazil, workload of 320/h, taught through Distance Education (DE), at the Itavianas Professionalizing Center, Uninter/Itapipoca (CE) branch. In these terms, this theoretical-methodological, technical-operational and ethical-political arsenal was substantiated based on the conceptions of Vocational and Technological Education (EFA) and its unfoldings in the legal system as a social policy, thus configuring itself as an inalienable, universal and non-transferable social right. In this way, the article aims to reflect on the socio-historical construction of EFA in the national context. The path and methodological configurations relied on the qualitative approach based on historical-dialectical materialism, developing the academic-scientific itinerary with outlines of bibliographic, documentary and exploratory research, predominating the understanding of contradictions and totality in the object of study, uncovering weaknesses and advances in the state of the art. In these terms, in order to reach the pre-established objective, we entered the Google Scholar and Scielo databases, the Theses and Dissertations available in the Capes Theses and Dissertations Catalog and in the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations, articles by researchers in the field, as well as other theoretical-methodological, technical-operational and ethical-political contributions of primary and secondary arsenal. Summarily, the study allowed us to point out that the state of the art is undergoing constant vicissitudes in its legal order, considering that professional education, during the 20th century, has suffered a series of reforms, adjustments, readjustments and maladjustments. Therefore, these vicissitudes in the legal system sought to meet the demands of the labor market, in line with the changes in Brazilian society
