Abstract
PINTASSILGO, Joaquim and BEATO, Carlos. The portuguese research in the field of history of school subjects: the example of doctoral theses (2005-2015). Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.1, pp.45-63. ISSN 1982-7806. https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v16n1-2017-5.
We intend to carry out a balance of the recent Portuguese production in History of Education, using the doctoral theses that can be placed in the specific field of history of school subjects as an example. For this purpose, we selected the period delimited by the years of 2005 and 2015. The history of school subjects is a consolidated field within historical and educational research, which involves a solid theoretical foundation, a diversified set of sources, and a particular research tradition regarding methodological procedures and conceptual tools. In a field that has reached a certain degree of stability, and that could have some risk of stagnation, we will try to identify its challenges, the approaches seeking its renewal, and the trends for future research, assuming the specificity, but also the exemplary, which this particular field contains within the research in History of Education.
