This paper advances the notion of social movement as a new way to think about and pursue educational change. It articulates a critique to scientific management, the paradigm that has shaped how schools and educational systems have been understood and run for over a century, since the creation of compulsory schooling. Drawing on some examples of radical and widespread pedagogical change in the Global South, the author proposes the notion of social movement as an alternative paradigm with a fighting chance to override scientific management as the dominant paradigm for educational change. The article concludes with remarks on the possibilities for the new paradigm to make its way into educational systems in so called developed nations.

作为社会运动的教育变革：来自全球南方的新兴范式

本文提出了社会运动的概念，将其作为思考和追求教育变革的一种新方式。它表达了对科学管理的批判，自义务教育创建以来，科学管理已经形成了一个多世纪以来人们对学校和教育系统的理解和运行方式。借鉴全球南方激进和广泛的教学变革的一些例子，作者提出了社会运动的概念，作为一种替代范式，有机会超越科学管理作为教育变革的主导范式。文章最后评论了新范式进入所谓发达国家的教育系统的可能性。
