Rural and Professional Education in Paraíba in the 1930s and 1940s
Resumo
This chapter seeks to understand rural and professional education in Paraíba in line with the political and social discussions of the Vargas period. It is the result of the research project Social Representations on Professional Education in the newspaper A União (Paraíba, 1930s) funded by the IFPB's INTERCONECTA public notice. At first, the text presents a small contextualization of Professional Education in Brazil and Paraíba up to our time frame, 1930. Soon after, he discusses, based on some bibliographic references, how, throughout the Vargas period, a rural education focused on work and nationalism became increasingly evident. Next, it presents some examples of rural education in Paraíba, discussing how it was organized and what would be the social and political representations that shaped the practices of this education. As a conclusion, we present a little of the trajectory of Sizenando Costa, a teacher and intellectual who fought for rural education in the period in question. Also, the proposal of the Model Rural Schools that he defended. The chapter dialogues both with studies on the history of rural and professional education in Paraíba and Brazil, as well as with analyses that deal with politics in the 1930s and 1940s.
