Estudo das produções da Sociologia Rural: análise da temática educacional

This article examines Brazilian academic production in the field of Rural Sociology, with emphasis on the presence, or absence, of discussions related to education. The guiding questions were: how has the rural been approached in research? Is education addressed? To what extent? The main objective was to conduct an exploratory essay on the main axes of investigation in Rural Sociology, seeking to identify the centrality attributed to the education of rural populations. Methodologically, a documentary analysis was carried out in three leading journals in the field. The findings indicate a limited presence of educational themes in the analyzed studies.
