Abstract

PINTO, Ana Kátia Pereira  and  OLIVEIRA, Ivone Martins de. GYPSIES AND SCHOOL: INTER-ETHNIC MEETING, BOUNDARIES AND SELF-ATTRIBUTION IN THE SUN CAMP. R. Educ. Públ. [online]. 2021, vol.30, e9395.  Epub May 08, 2021. ISSN 2238-2097.  https://doi.org/10.29286/rep.v30ijan/dez.9395.

The narrow inter-ethnic contact, the settlement and the children and young adults ‘obligation to attend the school, has changed the relations between gypsies and the school. This article has proposed to discuss meanings of the school for adult gypsies who set up camp in a city in the state of Espírito Santo. The ethnography was the investigative path that oriented this research and the collaborators mostly belong to a single familiar group. The analysis is centered on two opinions among the research collaborators: one highlighting that “schools are the end of the gypsy people” and the other that affirms that “schools are the light crossing the gypsies’ path”.

Keywords : Gypsies; School; Inter-ethnic meetings.
