CORDEIRO, Jaime; FABBRI, Daniele de Moraes  and  SOUZA, Jackson de Oliveira. “Educar em Revista” references’ circulation in the Brazilian educational field (2000-2010). Educ. Pesqui. [online]. 2019, vol.45, e188850.  Epub May 06, 2019. ISSN 1678-4634.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1678-4634201945188850.

The present study aims at analyzing the articles published in the period from 2000 to 2010 in one of the leading educational journals in Brazil, “Educar em Revista”, edited by the Department of Education of the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR). The goal is to depict the ensemble of authors who publish in this journal, as well as their affinities and networks, in order to obtain clues to help identify the current status of the Brazilian educational field, increasingly characterized by the culture of performativity based on intense competition. The leading hypothesis is that research articles published in major Brazilian journals can offer significant elements to understand the structure and dynamics of the field of education in the line proposed by Pierre Bourdieu. Methodological procedures were mobilized for the purpose of article examination and particular attention is paid to external referents present in the articles. Data is also collected based on bibliographical references, books, magazine articles, theses and dissertations and other sources mentioned in them. The assessment of biographical information and the authors ‘ curriculum completes the cycle. During the examining of “Educar em Revista” a change in the profile of the publication has been noted as it showed, between 2000 and 2005, a strong endogenous character, which was corrected in the last years of the study period, towards greater adequacy to the criteria for CAPES journal evaluation system. It has been noticed that both the editors as authors who publish in the journal seek to adjust to the new characteristics of the field, increasingly marked by performativity and competition.
