BATISTELA, Everton Marco  and  ROTTA, Mariza. Mecanomorfia Educational: A Review from the Behaviorist Theory of Alberto Guerreiro Ramos. Rev. Actual. Investig. Educ [online]. 2014, vol.14, n.3, pp.549-570. ISSN 1409-4703.

The critic of the modernity became common debate in the last decades of the century XX, undertaken by authors worried with the construction of alternative partners. One of the central theoretical lines of the debate refers to the concept of rationality of the modernity, having been central concern in Weber, Mannheim, Horkheimer, Adorno and others. Alberto Guerreiro Ramos, exponent Brazilian sociologist of the second half of the century XX, proposes a critic of the modernity for the perspective of its rationality organizacional, condensed in its Syndrome Theory Behavioral. That theory tries to understand the foundations and the basic dimensions of the modern reason: individualism, perspectivism, formalism and operationalism. In highest, the theory shows that lived immerged in a reason centered in the market, that foments behaviors in detriment of the action (creative) and that reduces the human rational capacity to its instrumental aspects and marketing. Starting from that, we will try to understand in that measured the modern rationality ends up forging a paradigm educational.
