TECNOLOGIA, DIREITO E INCLUSÃO: UM OLHAR SOBRE AS POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS NO BRASIL CONTEMPORÂNEO

The notion of inclusion, frequently evoked in Brazilian public policies, has been plagued by impasses that reveal tensions between normative promises and concrete implementation, especially when it comes to the articulation between technology, law, and social justice. In a country marked by structural inequalities and historical erasures, access to digital resources, far from configuring technical neutrality, involves symbolic and institutional disputes that reconfigure ways of being, learning, and participating in public life. It is in this context that technologies—often inscribed as universal solutions—sometimes operate as exclusion filters, by failing to consider the multiple forms of vulnerability and diversity that affect individuals. This scenario calls for a more complex reflection on the ethical foundations of technological policies and the criteria that guide their implementation in the spheres of education, culture, and public information. The objective of this research is to examine how contemporary Brazilian public policies have integrated—or neglected—dimensions of digital inclusion and technological citizenship, in light of the tensions between innovation and equity. The research is developed through bibliographical research with a qualitative approach, centered on authors who problematize the links between rights, technology and social justice in unequal contexts. The analytical path will be divided into six chapters, each addressing specific interfaces between inclusion, digital mediation and political-educational implications.
