          Abstract

          Associa-se frequentemente o termo "massificação" do ensino superior à democratização de seu acesso por parte de alunos provenientes das camadas sociais e culturais menos favorecidas e com menor tradição familiar de formação acadêmica superior. Neste artigo, pretende-se discutir, com base na análise de alguns indicadores da forte expansão ocorrida nos sistemas de ensino superior de Portugal e do Brasil nas últimas décadas, a efetiva democratização ocorrida. Vários pontos desse crescimento exponencial e alguns mecanismos de regulação criados, entretanto, permitem que se afirme que o ensino superior se abriu na realidade a estratos sociais e a públicos menos tradicionais neste nível de ensino; contudo, permanecem acentuadas assimetrias sociais nas instituições e nos cursos a que se tem acesso, ao mesmo tempo em que a permanência e abandono também se diferenciam socialmente em termos das respectivas taxas de incidência. Estes fenômenos têm causas diversas, não sendo possível ilibar as próprias instituições de ensino superior de responsabilidades nesse cenário.

          Translated abstract

          The "massification" of higher education is associated to greater democratization of attendance by students from social and cultural backgrounds with fewer opportunities and less family tradition of academic education. In this article, we intend to discuss, based on the analysis of some indicators of strong growth that has occurred in higher education systems in Portugal and Brazil in recent decades, how the effective democratization occurred. Several points of this exponential growth and some regulatory mechanisms created, however, allow us to say that higher education was opened to the social strata and less traditional public education at this level, but social inequalities still remain high in institutions and programs, as can be observed by permanence and dropout rates. These phenomena have many causes, and can not acquit higher institutions from their share of responsibility for the problem.
