META-RESEARCH: THE IMPLEMENTATION OF EDUCATIONAL PUBLIC POLICIES IN THE FIELD OF EDUCATION

ABSTRACT: This paper aims to analyze the theoretical references and analytical concepts (called descriptors) mobilized by studies on implementing public policies in the field of education. Considering that academic production on the theme of implementation in the Education field is scarce, we conducted a meta-research based on the definition of some descriptors and theoretical references from the Political Science field. We tried to verify, surveying the academic production in the Education field — theses, dissertations, and articles — which was the presence and how these references were mobilized. The time frame was limited to the years 2018 and 2019, and, in total, we identified 10 articles and 25 theses and dissertations. The analysis and categorization of this material, identifying the theoretical-conceptual referential used, indicated that among the selected theses and dissertations, there is a higher concentration of studies on implementing agents and, among the articles, a higher concentration of studies on governance structures. From the results, we consider that there is, among researchers in the educational area, an approach “under construction” to the specific literature of the Political Science field on implementation.摘要：本文旨在剖析教育领域公共政策实施相关研究中所运用的理论参考框架与分析性概念（descriptors）。鉴于教育领域针对政策实施主题的学术成果较为匮乏，本研究基于对政治学领域若干描述符与理论参考框架的界定开展元研究。本研究通过调研教育领域的学术成果——包括学位论文与期刊文章——，尝试验证这些理论参考框架的存在情况及其运用方式。本次研究的时间范围限定为2018年与2019年，最终共检索到10篇期刊文章以及25篇学位论文。对上述材料进行分析与归类，并明确其中所采用的理论概念参考框架后，结果显示：在入选的学位论文中，有关政策实施主体的研究占比更高；而在期刊文章中，有关治理结构的研究占比更高。基于上述研究结果，我们认为教育领域研究者对于政治学领域有关政策实施的专门文献，尚处于待完善的探索阶段。
