CABRAL NETO, Antônio; CASTRO, Alda Maria Duarte Araújo  and  BARBALHO, Maria Goretti Cabral. Federalism and education in Brazil: grants for debate. Rev. Educ. Questão [online]. 2014, vol.50, n.36, pp.42-72. ISSN 1981-1802.  https://doi.org/10.5238/2015v50i360003.

This article discusses federalism, seeking to understand their conceptual frameworks as well as its setting in Brazil and the implications for the field of education. We conclude, in the last years, that, particularly after the 1988 Federal Constitution, there is a reconfiguration of Brazilian federalism with the insertion of the municipality as a federated entity and autonomy to think out their education systems. The standards and implemented programs approved seek to consolidate the regime of collaboration among federal agencies for the field of education. However, the Brazilian federalism, over the years, has not fulfilled, satisfactorily, its redistributive and supplementary function, so we observed conditions that differentiated offers at all educational levels.

Keywords : Federalism; Education; Programs.
