In this book, Bellinaso summarizes the theoretical contributions on the precariousness of teaching work in Distance Education (EAD) to demonstrate the division of labor and the form of capital accumulation in this field of knowledge that is still little understood and explored. In particular, the study analyzes how neoliberalism, leveraged by Communication and Information Technologies, provided the commodification of education, advancing the logic of productivity characteristic of industrial work - automated, simplified, multipurpose and intensified - to a traditionally artisanal work process as the teaching activity. In this context, software that robotizes education is combined with Taylorist and Toyotist organizational methods, leading to precarious forms of hiring that fragment teachers' know-how, restricting their autonomy and creativity in the teaching-learning process, which becomes subordinated to the machinery informational.
The merit of this book lies in contributing to a better understanding of the history of distance learning and some of its dimensions in Brazil (legislation, expansion in public and private education, among others), making it possible to place this teaching modality within a broader process of expansion from capitalism to sectors hitherto refractory to the logic of surplus value. At a time when the new coronavirus pandemic enhances this teaching modality, the reflections presented here become particularly important to oppose the discourse of its inevitability and the naturalization of Education as a commodity.
