LEANDRO, Andressa Barbosa de Farias. On the path of the Norte-Rio-Grandense education: the emergence of scout practices in the city of Natal in the early 20th century. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2021, vol.37, e77046.  Epub 06-Ago-2021. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.77046.

This article aims to analyze the emergence of scouting, in the city of Natal- RN, at the beginning of the 20th century, problematizing how this type of education, which was thought by Baden-Powell, for the reality of young English people, was received by the elite and local political authorities. To follow the path left by the scout education in the State of Rio Grande do Norte, we adapted information from the theoretical and methodological hypotheses of the New Cultural History, choosing as sources laws, government messages, newspapers, correspondence, and photographs, based in the theoretical considerations of Sirinelli (2003) about the intellectual concept, which enabled us to think about the founders of the Scouting in the city of Natal, and their network of sociability. The work showed that the emergence of Scouting in the city of Natal was a result of the initiative of intellectuals, whose social networks were determinant to implement and consolidate this model of education in the State.
