VILELA, Rita Amelia Teixeira  and  NOACK-NAPOLES, Juliane. "Hermenêutica objetiva" e sua apropriação na pesquisa empírica na área da educação. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2010, vol.16, n.31, pp.305-326. ISSN 1981-0431.

This text presents the qualitative social research methodology called "Objective Hermeneutics" developed by the German sociologist Ulrich Oevermann and points out its appropriateness in educational research. Deriving from the interpretative tradition of Theodor Adorno’s Critical Theory, the purpose of the "Objective Hermeneutics" analysis is to reveal the logic between the structures of social reproduction and the structures of transformation, shown in some kind of text. Therefore, the objective is to unveil and show the sui generis reality that it contains: texts written from field research protocols, interviews, as well as art work, music, architecture, which are equally texts to be interpreted. The methodology intends to comprehend the meanings that were given to a determined social situation and which are registered in the text. The text presents dimensions of the method used in Germany and in Brazil in school and classroom researches.

Keywords : Qualitative Research; Educational Research; Objective Hermeneutics; Ulrich Oevermann.
