This article aims to discuss the historical course of the liberal and neoliberal economic perspective, as well as the possible influences on Brazilian education and the scarcity of academic production in this area. Having dialectical historical materialism as a reference, the methodological approach used was: a) systematic review of theoretical bases; b) search for studies published in the “Scielo” database between 2007-2017 with the descriptors “teacher work”, “precarization”, “teacher”, “educational policies” and “neoliberalism”. We found 358 studies, with “teacher” obtaining the largest amount of published research 157, “precarization” presented the lowest number 10, followed by the descriptor “neoliberalism” 37. It was verified that the educational research that relates the neoliberal perspective to the education, need more publications, since the neoliberal principles are historically linked in the formulation and execution of reformist public policies that affect the Brazilian educational system, focusing its efforts in the basic education in detriment of Higher Education, meeting the demands of the market and further aggravating social inequalities.
