| dc.description.abstract | School Sex Education (SSE) has been asserting itself in Europe, by influ ence of international organizations concerned with health promotion (WHO) and education of children and young people (UNESCO) and by the intervention of non-governmental organisations (NGOs). In Portugal, SSE has also been imposing itself as a domain of educational intervention (Vilar, 2009) and today in tegrates the “Education for Citizenship”, a curricular area present in primary and secondary education, as a transversal and transdisciplinary theme. What justifications do the publicauthorities advance for the inclusion of sex education on the school menu? Which themes are part of this considered educational Common Good? What controversies can SSE generate in plural and increasingly multicultural societies? This paper intends to address these questions, based on the Portuguese case. The methodology used consisted of a documentary analysis of several educational policy instruments (legislation, national strategies, and subject contents) in force in the last decades. As a result, the analysis identified a certain ambivalence between a biomedical approach (inspired by preventive medicine aimed at avoiding public health problems) and a psychosocial approach (inspired by the search for individual well-being), which refersto the tension between discipline and freedom which is at the heart of modernity (Wagner, 1996). | pt_PT |
