BRAGA, Paulo Drumond. The Ministers of National Education (1936-1974): Sociology of a Task. Rev. Lusófona de Educação [online]. 2010, n.16, pp.23-38. ISSN 1645-7250.

Between 1936 and 1974, a timeframe corresponding to the largest part of the Estado Novo (New State), issues regarding education were under the rule of the ministry of National Education, which replaced the Ministry of Instruction in 1936. This article aims to characterise men who, in that same timeframe, held the position of ministers of National Education. We will study issues such as the generation they belonged to, their education and their cursus honorum, always compared with the other members of the government of Portugal.

Keywords : Estado Novo (New State); education; minister of National Education.
