Expansão da educação superior e progressividade do investimento público

This paper describes changes that occurred in the Brazilian tertiary education system considering information from household surveys and from administrative data collected by the Ministry of Education. A movement toward democratizing access occurred especially in public universities and in the period 2005-2015. As a result, a higher share of government investment in public universities has reached socially worse-off strata, and the public investments in tertiary education no longer contribute to increase income inequality.
