EUGENIST AND SOCIAL HYGIENE HUMAN FORMATION PROJECTS: PRESCRIPTIONS FOR PHYSICAL EDUCATION IN MAGAZINES (1932–1960)
Keywords:
Physical Education, eugenics, hygiene, magazine, prescriptionsAbstract
The article aims to understand the guidelines for Physical Education teaching based on
eugenicist and social hygiene training projects. We used as sources the Revista Educação Física (230
articles) and Revista Educação Physica (405 articles). The concepts of materiality analysis and appropriation
practices are used as theoretical assumptions. The results indicate that the writers’ dialogue with the principles of eugenics and social hygiene was related to the editorial profiles of the magazines, in a
negotiation scenario related to the formation perspectives assumed by them. This theorizing conferred
scientificity to Physical Education and supported the publication of prescriptions that would guide
training and teaching practice. In the sources, theory and practice were intertwined, thus, the magazines
are didactic-pedagogical devices, contributing to the insertion and consolidation of Physical Education
in school curriculum.
