PEREIRA, Rita Ribes. The Methodology Dwells on the Topic: childhood and culture in research. Educ. Real. [online]. 2021, vol.46, n.1, e106860. Epub Mar 22, 2021. ISSN 2175-6236. https://doi.org/10.1590/2175-6236106860.
The following text discusses the relevance of the subject in the research activity, specifically when the construction of a methodology is concerned considering that Human and Social Studies are indeed discursive science and the interlocutors’ voices - researcher and child - have been central to methodological construction. The text purpose is to broaden such debate, shifting the focus to a third crucial element in this otherness constitution that, very often, is considered apart from the methodology: the topic. The discussion is made from the analysis of five researches in the interdisciplinary field of childhood studies and based on philosophy of the language by Walter Benjamin and also Mikhail Bakhtin and Valentin Volochnov’s circle.
