Abstract

Viewing the government agenda from the perspective of the Humanities and Social Sciences as part of a dynamic social structure that produces political documents that work in a reflexively way, and motivate educational actions concerning food practices, the aim of the research presented in this paperis to analyze the Food and Nutrition Education (FNE) guidelines and educational policies found in the official document Marco de referência de educação alimentar e nutricional para políticas públicas, [Reference Landmark of Food and Nutrition Education for Public Policies],using the concept of ideology and its link with education. The methodological approach adopted consisted in information retrieval and document analysis, which enabled systematic evaluation of the document from the dimensions proposed by Cellard (2010). The document presents directives and guidelines for FNE practices in an idealized and simplified way, despite the issue’s complexity. Some complex aspects and contradictions inherent to the educational process were analyzed, such as use of a supposedly transformative discourse, based on Freire’sfreeing education, but that doesnot escape some “banking model” featuresin its intention to moralize FNE actions,reducing them to a pattern of “right eating habits” to be followed, whichare not harmonious with thesocially unequal Brazilian reality.
