The inter-relationship between the right to education and educational planning: an analysis of scientific production (1988 - 2018)

ABSTRACT The objective of this article is to inventory the knowledge produced in Brazil about the right to education and its articulation with the theme “educational planning”, from 1988 to 2018, through the abstract of theses and dissertations available for public consultation at the Banco de Dados da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal do Nível Superior (CAPES) [Database of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel], in the area of Education. The methodology of this research was guided by the State of the Art, through the survey and analysis of the academic production on the theme, in the light of categories and approaches that are detached from the scope of the investigated works. In the context of compulsory basic education, the study revealed the reverberation of the right to education and its relationship with educational planning by making explicit the consolidation of the school as a concrete space for experiences of rights and the State as a mediator in the scope of management and educational planning, simultaneously, to the challenge of overcoming the mismatch between intentions and actions within the scope of the effective enforcement of the guaranteed right in the Brazilian legal system.
