RESUMO

During feminist activism, on debates to activists or politicians related to the university, I noticed certain thought that I disagreeded to: moving certain ways of thinking about women and gender created on the fields of work, citizenship and public politics to education. Thinking about it, two questions were developed: 1) How the category gender has been used on educational researches?, 2) Which categories have been (re)created on this encounter between gender studies and educational studies? Then I decided to study PhD thesis about gender relations and education produced in Brazil from 1994 to 2004, for what I made a research at Capes basis and at the sites from universities. After some choices among the studies that I found, I decided to study those that revised or recreated categories from educational field by using gender propositions, which were ten studies. Considering a tradition from studies of Sociology of Education, I emphasized the comprehension that our educational reality is a specific social reality, on your shades and complexities. Beyond that, as education is situated on the conflicting and hybrid field between public and private, family and the State, gender, into your multiple dimensions, can bring great contributions to a better comprehension of educational reality, such as like: breaking these oppositions; possibilities from using neuter gender and hybrid forms; not to disqualify or deny what could be considered related to domestic, private and feminine; to assume tensions and conflicts. That´s why I decided to study gender uses on those researches I chose: investigate how that category has been created on educational studies, not thinking about the reasons of using gender. That was possible just because, despite gender studies are little considered on educational field, they are consolidated - though they are a marginal field of studies -, what became evident on the researches I studied. At the end, I could notice important theoretical confrontations in the educational filed, such as discussing that teachers´ work at elementary school is different of domestic work, collective actions are different of trade unions, teachers´ work is different either of professionals or to working class, that the work of women in the underground system of educating little children is legitimate examples of an accurate intellectual work.
