ABSTRACT
This study focuses on discussing the relationships between textbooks and curricular policies, from a conception of curriculum as cultural enunciation. It is argued that this pedagogical material is a participant in disputes over the meaning of education and the curriculum, problematizing a representational perspective that takes it as a materialization of disputes and meanings that precede it. The stereotyped view is discussed based on his interpretation of the stereotype as a fetish, as a discursive strategy that functions as an apparatus of power due to his ambivalence. It is argued that the textbook is a hybrid production that participates in curricular production and, like the curriculum, is a cultural enunciation.
