• Abstract:

  The objective of this article is to explain, based on a recap of academic documents, the most important events during the period of regulation of the Pedagogy course in Brazil between the years 1939 and 1990. The present study analyzes the elaboration of the identity of the course in constant inquiry, as well as ideological constructs of the pedagogue's training about the structure and organization of the course. Mainly in the fragmentation, discredit, ambiguity and separation of the theory and practice of this training, as well as educational policies and the purposes of the world of work. Initially, it aimed to train teachers for teaching in Normal Schools or Education technicians, and later pedagogical qualifications specialized in certain demands would also appear. In this context, the promulgation of opinions and discussions about the existence of the course allowed debates and contradictions throughout the process. This concludes, therefore, an incessant search for the identity of the course in all its occupations and curricula in favor of the affirmation of Pedagogy in Brazil.
