This article analyzes the evolution and application of neoliberal public policies implemented in Latin America, with impacts on public education systems and in the exercise of people’s right to education. The text focuses on the development of policies in the rural sectors, with focus on Education in the Field, specifically in Brazil and Venezuela. It is a qualitative research whose data were obtained through bibliographic review and documentary analysis. We took as basis the analysis of the legislation in the mentioned countries. The results showed that in Venezuela, until the end of the twentieth century, the focus of the public policies was concentrated on the urbanization of the rural, with an education subordinated to the petroleum culture. In the case of Brazil, the education for rural people, led by peasant subjects, has achieved many achievements from the point of view of educational policies. However, it lacks constant confrontation between the working class and the dominant class.
