PESQUISAS SOBRE IMPLEMENTAÇÃO DE POLÍTICAS EDUCACIONAIS NO BRASIL: UM ESTADO DO CONHECIMENTO

Abstract

ABSTRACT: We present the data of a state of knowledge review study over research on the implementation of educational policies and programs published in Brazilian Public Policy journals. Two questions conducted the particular goals of this analysis: whether educational policies and programs have been represented as research objects in studies of implementation in the field of Public Policies and what the main approaches are used by researchers in the area during these investigations. This is a documentary and bibliographic work, comprising a survey of articles published in national journals qualified in the A1 class of Qualis Periodicals (Capes) in the areas of Political Science, Sociology, and Public Administration. The main results indicate that, although still poorly studied, when compared to policies in the area of health and social assistance, the implementation of educational policies and programs has grown among the objects of research in the field of Public Policies. Results also indicate two inclinations among these studies: those that are produced while tied to theoretical and conceptual references in the field of Public Policy and others that do not present interaction with this field, from the theoretical-conceptual point of view.
