In the organization of municipal education systems, the Municipal Councils of Education (CMEs) can take on an important role in proposing educational policies that support the development of a socially referenced quality school. Thus, this article aims to contribute to the advancement of the knowledge production about the CMEs, their nature, functions and relevance, based on how researches carried out in the State of Goiás on this thematic debate the participation and social representation in these Councils. To do so, the state of knowledge in dissertations and theses in Post-Graduation Programs in Goiás was stablished. Five researches involving the CMEs with different objects were found; however the analysis of the data allowed inferring that there is no research that directly addresses the issue of participation and social representation in the Councils. Nevertheless, considering that these categories are fundamental elements in the implementation of democratic management, all those studies approach this problematic, emphasizing that in the researched councils these bureaucratic practices are still perpetuated, there is little representativeness. In addition, they are still extremely attached to the municipal executive power, minimizing their potential and action regarding the mediation of community interests and the organization of public education.
