The research was done towards obtaining a Master's Degree in the History of Education in the Post-Graduate Department of Education at the Federal University of Goiás, in Goiania-Goiás, Brazil. The research investigated the formation and function of "Agricultural Clubs" in the state of Goiás from the 1930's to the 1960's. These Agricultural Clubs were created by the government to help train the poor, rural people in Agriculture. The goals of the research were to discover what was the intention of creating these clubs, what were their pedagogical, social, political and cultural functions, and to discover what were the agents and agencies responsible for their creation, maintenance and development during the time period studied. The objectives of the research were: 1 - to identify and analyze the context of appearance and existence of agricultural clubs (schools) in the perspective of understanding their origins and motivations; 2 - map the agencies and agents that encourage their creation and diffusion; 3 - to inventory and study the political and socio-cultural role of clubs in the history of Brazilian and Goiás schooling. A wide range of printed sources were mapped and studied, mostly linked to the Ministry of Agriculture, such as thematic magazines, bulletins and periodical and educational press of national and state circulation. The sources of research were organized in thematic series and then compared to each other and to theoretical references. The historiographic basis for the identification and study of research sources was found in the production of the history of Brazilian education, especially researchers in the history of rural school and rural education. The study also discusses rural education policy researchers such as historian Sonia Regina de Mendonça and pedagogical ruralism of the Education Sociologist, Adonia Prado. The study of the sources indicated the relative importance of school agricultural clubs in the Brazilian and Goianian educational field of the period. At the end of the research, it was possible to verify that the agricultural clubs were installed in Brazil and Goiás as instruments in the service of a ruralist ideology, especially as far as the civilization of the inhabitants of the rural areas is concerned, the forging of ruralistic mentalities in the future generations of Brazilians. In this sense, the agricultural clubs express the materialization of an education project in keeping with Brazil's progress, development and insertion in the specter of capitalism, which then expanded to the peripheral regions of the known world.
