Abstract
The article is the result of a research that aimed to analyze the negotiations with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) through the Project for Education Expansion and Development in the Municipal Public Network of Manaus (PROEMEM), implemented by the Municipal Education Secretariat (SEMED). The aim was to highlight the market logic involved in such negotiations with private sector participation and the way in which this initiative has been outlined in the municipal public education scenario. In order to conclude the study, a literature review was carried out, as well as data collection and analysis of primary documents, including SEMED official documents and Annual Reports, which are available on IDB internal use links, as well as documents related to the implementation of PROEMEM and actions carried out by said project in the period from 2013 to 2017. The study points out the implications of this process for the municipal public school. In the analysis, it is identified that there is an undeniable movement in favor of the viability of the expansion of private institutions in the educational sector, where they find new niches of economic exploitation that allow the private appropriation of the public good, without, however, effectively generating improvement of the public school network. The acceptance of this logic promotes changes in the conceptions of public school, with the incorporation of private institutions in the municipal school network.
