Panorama dos grupos de pesquisa em políticas públicas de esporte e lazer no Brasil presentes no diretório de grupos de pesquisa do CNPQ

Abstract

The aim of this study was to locate research groups on Leisure and Sports´ Public Policies in Brazil, know how they are geographically distributed in the country and draw a picture of what has been produced in this research line. For this, we carried out a systematic search in the Research Groups Directory of the National Scientific and Technological Development Council, using the snowball methodological technique, on the theme Leisure and Sports´ Public Policies. Certificated groups are distributed among the Northeast (n=12), Southeast (n=8), South (n=5), Midwest (n=4) and North (n=1). These groups develop 97 lines of research, among these, however, only 33% (n = 32) are specific in Leisure and Sports´ Public Policies. It was observed that there was an increase per year of 5.93% in the number of research groups between 1998 and 2015.
