As políticas educacionais no nordeste brasileiro: desafios para a pesquisa em financiamento da educação

Abstract

This research project analyzes the production of knowledge regarding educational policies developed in the Northeast region concerning publications in journals present in the CAPES Periodicals Database and SciELO from 2015 to 2024 and SciELO Brazil. It has specific objectives: to inventory academic production in educational policy in the Northeast Region in the CAPES Periodicals Database and SciELO from 2015 to 2024; to investigate the circulation process of educational policy production in the Northeast region, examining the trends, potentials, and challenges of state action in productions about educational policies; to outline research trends, gaps, and methodologies present in educational policy research in the Northeast region. The review covered articles and official documents published in the last 10 years, available in databases such as the CAPES Periodicals Database from 2015 to 2024 and SciELO Brazil, and state institutional repositories. The analysis relied on integrative review techniques, allowing the quantification of research patterns (authors, journals, collaborative networks) and mapping recurring themes (FUNDEB, Royalties, state funds, fiscal responsibility). It is expected that this survey will provide a consolidated view of the advances and limitations in research on regional educational funding, support future empirical studies, and guide the formulation of more equitable public policies aligned with the specificities of the Northeast. From this study, as well as providing theoretical and empirical subsidies that guide normative revisions and the improvement of funding instruments, contribute to reducing regional inequalities and strengthening the quality of education in the diverse realities of northeastern Brazil.
