This text exposes the theoretical foundations and the research tools of a research program that takes, as an object and sources of studies, curriculum documents (recognized as prescribed curriculum) produced for the spaces of basic education, in the stages of early childhood education, elementary school and in the special education modality. The theoretical foundations and the research tools do not constitute themselves in a simple presentation, but in the recognition of their strategic roles in the resumption of the methodological discussions about the “comparison” in the research development in education, as well as in the results record in a more rigorous and less hybrid writing, in the field of the studies of prescribed curricula. We comprehend to form a comparison version highly shifted to a theoretical and methodological plane, named comparative study. Such a plane is part in a local perspective, that is to say, determined by a geographical location recognized by the states and municipalities, in the investigation of the educational processes and of the meanings of the curricular phenomena in these processes. We use the notion of version by resorting to the intersection of comparative education, comparative history of education, and comparative social sciences. In conclusion, the comparative study on curriculum documents clarifies processes of cultural and ideological relativization in the field of curricular studies, promoting new forms of writing of another history about / of the prescription.
