A HISTORIOGRAFIA DA GEOGRAFIA ACADÊMICA E ESCOLAR: UMA RELAÇÃO DE (DES)ENCONTROS / The Historiography of Academic and School Geography: the Relation of Meetings and Disencounters

Resumo

O presente artigo tem o intuito de apresentar a historiografia da Geografia acadêmica e escolar, uma vez que suas trajetórias estão interligadas. Tem-se como objetivo compreender o ensino de Geografia no Brasil no contexto hodierno a partir de um resgate histórico da relação de encontros e desencontros entre Geografia escolar e acadêmica. Para tanto, realizou-se uma revisão bibliográfica concernente à epistemologia da Geografia visando analisar como as correntes do pensamento geográfico e as discussões teóricas desenvolvidas em âmbito acadêmico refletiram-se no espaço escolar. Portanto, (re)pensar o ensino de Geografia na contemporaneidade está associado a uma questão epistemológica e pressupõe (re)pensar o diálogo estabelecido entre universidade e escola.

ABSTRACT

This article aims to present the history of academic and school geography, since their paths are related to each other. It has been aimed to understand the geography teaching in Brazil in today's context from a historical review of the relation between school and academic geography. To this end, we carried out a biographic review through a survey and study of works concerning especially the epistemology of geographical science and geography teaching in order to analyze the currents of geographic thought and theoretical discussions triggered in academic location that reflected in the school. It was found that there was progress in the geographical academic production over the decades with the development of different theoretical lines, but aspects such as Humanistic Critical and Cultural are nonexistent or barely visible in school practices. So rethink the teaching of geography in contemporary times is associated with an epistemological question and requires rethinking the dialogue between university and school.
