Abstract

This study aims to analyze the concepts of rural education present in scientific articles published in Scielo database and in Revista Brasileira de Educação do Campo, from 2016 to 2021. Therefore, we have used a systematic literature review in a qualitative meta-analysis typology and, based on the review protocol, we have performed searches with the descriptors "rural education", "conception" and "rural school". After mapping the productions, reading the titles, keywords and abstracts, applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, thirteen (13) works were selected and analyzed in that study to answer the question: what are the conceptions of rural education present in scientific articles published in Scielo database and in Revista Brasileira de Educação do Campo – Brazilian Journal of Rural Education, from 2016 to 2021? The research has showed that the evaluated works present a conception of rural education from the perspective of law, the result of struggles of peasant social movements.
