description | The article discusses the recent scenario of expansion of access to University in Brazil, highlighting the new public institutions that integrate the so-called emerging context. Its main objective is to reflect on the democratization of university access and permanence in a social context of inequality. To this end, it mobilizes the theoretical contribution of studies on Higher Education, presenting two methodological strategies. The first (a) State of Knowledge research, aiming to identify perspectives and trends of academic articles in the main electronic journals of the country. Also, of these and dissertations produced in the Postgraduate Programs in Brazil, about the theme of democratization of Higher Education; and (b) exploratory research with professors from federal universities implemented in the last period, seeking empirical subsidies to understand the limits and possibilities of university democratization in Brazil. The work done suggests that advances have occurred in public policies of access and permanence in the first decade of the 21st century, although the new universities are involved in challenges of consolidating their physical structure and institutional projects. Therefore, the emerging scenario signals what we call the inconclusive democratization of the Brazilian university, characterized by the relative improvement of access in quantitative and qualitative terms, as well as by dilemmas of student permanence and new epistemological and methodological approaches in the University curriculum. |

El artículo discute la reciente escena de expansión del acceso a la universidad en Brasil, señalando las nuevas instituciones públicas que integran el denominado contexto emergente. Tiene como objetivo principal reflexionar sobre la democratización del acceso y permanencia universitaria en contexto social de desigualdad. Para ello, moviliza aporte teórico de los estudios sobre la Educación Superior, presentando dos estrategias metodológicas: (a) investigación de Estado del Conocimiento aspirando identificar perspectivas y tendencias de artículos académicos de las principales revistas electrónicas del país, así como de tesis doctorales y tesis de maestría producidas en los Programas de Posgrado de Brasil acerca de la temática de la democratización de la Educación Superior y (b) investigación exploratoria con docentes de universidades federales implantadas en el último período, buscando subsidios empíricos para comprender los límites y las posibilidades de la democratización universitaria en Brasil. El trabajo realizado sugiere que ocurrieron avances en políticas públicas de acceso y permanencia en la primera década del siglo XXI, aunque las nuevas universidades estén involucradas en retos de consolidación de su estructura física y proyectos institucionales. Por lo tanto, la escena emergente evidencia lo que designamos como democratización inconclusa de la universidad brasileña, caracterizada por la mejora relativa del acceso en términos cuantitativos y cualitativos, así como por dilemas de permanencia estudiantil y de nuevos abordajes epistemológicos y metodológicos en el currículo universitario.
