Resumo
Neste artigo procuramos reconstituir o processo de decisão política sobre a entrada de Portugal no PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment), no arco temporal que mediou entre a tomada de posse do XIII Governo Constitucional, em 1995, e a divulgação, em 2001, dos resultados da primeira participação dos alunos portugueses neste inquérito internacional. Do ponto de vista metodológico, privilegiou-se uma abordagem qualitativa centrada na análise compreensiva de docu mentos de política educativa, incluindo textos legais (e.g., decretos-lei, decretos regulamentares, portarias), programa de governo, discursos de apresentação e debates parlamentares realizados em seu torno e, ainda, entrevistas em profundidade a atores políticos relevantes em cargos governamentais no período em estudo e a dirigentes envolvidos na coordenação da primeira participação portuguesa no PISA. Do ponto de vista teórico, mobilizaram-se contributos sobre, por um lado, a emergência, mobilização e disseminação das avaliações internacionais de larga escala e, por outro, sobre os fundamentos da participação dos países nessas avaliações. Os resultados da nossa análise sugerem que a decisão política sobre a participação de Portugal no PISA, que não foi unânime, terá sido tomada por emulação normativa e visou consolidar uma direção particular da agenda da política educativa nacional.
In this article we seek to reconstruct the decision-making process on Portugal’s entry into PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment), in the timeframe between the moment when the 13th Portuguese Constitutional Government took office, in 1995, and the disclosure, in 2001, of the results of the first participation of Portuguese students in this international survey. From a methodological point of view, the emphasis was laid on a qualitative approach centred on a comprehensive analysis of policy documents, including legal documents (e.g., decree-laws, regulatory decrees, Ministerial Orders), Government programmes, presentation speeches and par liamentary debates held around it, and, also, in-depth interviews with key actors with government positions in the timeframe under study, and with leaders involved in the coordination of the first Portuguese participation in PISA. From a theoretical point of view, contributions regarding, on the one hand, the rise, mobilization and dissemination of international large-scale assessments and, on the other hand, the rationales for countries’ participation in these as sessments were mobilized. The results of our analysis suggest that the decision to have Portugal participate in PISA, which was not unanimous, has been taken by normative emulation and aimed to consolidate a particular direction of the national educational policy agenda.
