OLIVEIRA, Amurabi. Etnografia e pesquisa educacional: por uma descrição densa da educação. Educação. UNISINOS [online]. 2013, vol.17, n.03, pp.271-280. ISSN 2177-6210.

This paper aims to contribute to the discussion of educational anthropology, field of studies still little explored in Brazil, exploring the possibilities opened up by ethnographic research in education. Much educational research has used the ethnographic method, as well as anthropological theories, without proper epistemological reflection around this method. The discussion involves both a broader analysis of the ethnographic method, as and specific reflection on the interpretive anthropology proposed by Geertz. It seeks, thereby, to advance the methodological discussion of educational research, by narrowing the discussion between anthropology and education in the scientific debate.

Palabras clave : Anthropology of Education; Ethnography; Educational Research.
