CELESTE FILHO, Macioniro. THE RURAL EDUCATION CONCEIVED BY INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS AND THEIR REPERCUSSIONS IN BRAZIL IN THE 1960S AND 1970S. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.24, e240055.  Epub Oct 25, 2019. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782019240055.

The paper deals with the divergent conceptions that international organisms dedicated to rural education in the 1960s and 1970s. It presents the ideal conceptions that United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (Unesco) and the Organization of American States (OAS) have dedicated to the theme. It highlights how Unesco's advisory economists have defined rural education hegemonically in this organization, as well as emphasizes the preponderance of the thinking of UNESCO’s economists as advisors in the implementation of rural education projects in the 1960s and 1970s. Differentiating from Unesco-related economists, the debate on rural education promoted by Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (Eclac) in the 1970s will deal with this issue in an innovative way. Finally, the conceptions that rural education found in Brazilian government agencies in the 1960s and 1970s will be presented. The research aimed to differentiate the possible influences of the international debate on rural education in the 1960s and 1970s and their interfaces with the discussion of this theme in Brazil in the same period.

Keywords : rural education; history of education; international organizations of culture.
