No. of bitstreams: 1 Armando Gon?alves.pdf: 5332190 bytes, checksum: 448d95c5ed88794f5d3a51515e91ba1d (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-10-11 / Academic rankings, indexes, and international, regional and national classifications are phenomena present in higher education since the 20th century and have been expanding in the 21st century with the presence of the global rankings of Shanghai University and the British newspaper The Times. Brazil participates intensively in this trend, both following the performance of its higher education institutions (IES) in the global rankings and producing its national public rankings, from the indicators of the National System of Evaluation of Higher Education (SINAES), and private, as those of the Student Guide (GE) and the University University Ranking (RUF). However, the country has previously had a pioneering academic ranking at the national level of IES, which was published for 19 consecutive years, in a monthly magazine of high circulation of Editora Abril: the ranking Best Faculty of Brazil (RMFB) of Playboy. This research aimed to investigate the trajectory of the RMFB private academic ranking of Editora Abril in the Playboy magazine, from conception to its closure, between the years of 1981 and 2000. In view of the still reduced specific literature in Brazil, this research was contextualized in a state of the art regarding academic rankings and their implications for HEIs around the world, in the light of international scientific literature, which subsidized the understanding of the role of academic rankings for higher education systems, studied the trajectory of the published RMFB by the Brazilian Playboy magazine, identified the main moments of its public trajectory, from its conception in 1981 until its closure in the year 2000, verified aspects of Brazilian higher education present in the reports associated with the RMFB, observed the pioneering of this national academic ranking in Brazil and in the world, and finally raised the methodological aspects and analyzed its main published results along the RMFB trajectory. It is a fundamentally qualitative research that has carried out a methodological triangulation between bibliographical and documentary analyzes and also through semistructured interviews, articulated in order to produce a greater analytical completeness of the phenomenon studied to reach the research objectives. As conclusions of this work we have observed academic rankings expanding in quantity and relevance since the 1980s to our days and all over the world, Brazil as having the first national academic ranking through the Playboy RMFB while the scientific literature still attributes this fact to the US News magazine's America's Best Colleges (RABC) ranking, the journal's team with extensive dialogue with the main actors of Brazilian higher education, and the ranking tables published by this ranking demonstrating a dominance of the University of S?o Paulo ( USP) in the first places of the courses surveyed in most of the 19 editions of the RMFB. / Rankings acad?micos, ?ndices e tabelas classificat?rias internacionais, regionais e nacionais s?o fen?menos presentes na educa??o superior desde o s?culo XX e que v?m se expandindo neste s?culo XXI, com a presen?a dos rankings globais da Universidade de Shangai e do jornal brit?nico The Times. O Brasil participa intensamente desta tend?ncia, tanto acompanhando o desempenho de suas institui??es de ensino superior (IES) nos rankings globais quanto produzindo seus rankings nacionais p?blicos, a partir dos indicadores do Sistema Nacional de Avalia??o da Educa??o Superior (SINAES), e privados, como os do Guia do Estudante (GE) e do Ranking Universit?rio Folha (RUF). No entanto, o pa?s teve anteriormente um ranking acad?mico pioneiro em ?mbito nacional de IES, que foi publicado por 19 anos consecutivos, em uma revista mensal de elevada tiragem da Editora Abril: o ranking Melhores Faculdade do Brasil (RMFB) de Playboy. Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo geral investigar a trajet?ria do ranking acad?mico privado RMFB da Editora Abril na revista Playboy, desde sua concep??o at? seu encerramento, entre os anos de 1981 a 2000. Diante da ainda reduzida literatura espec?fica no Brasil, esta pesquisa foi contextualizada em um estado da quest?o a respeito dos rankings acad?micos e de suas implica??es para as IES em todo o mundo, ? luz da literatura cient?fica internacional, que subsidiou o entendimento do papel dos rankings acad?micos para os sistemas de educa??o superior, estudou a trajet?ria do RMFB publicado pela revista Playboy brasileira, identificou os principais momentos de sua trajet?ria p?blica, desde sua concep??o em 1981 at? seu encerramento no ano 2000, verificou aspectos da educa??o superior brasileira presentes nas reportagens associadas ao RMFB, observou o pioneirismo deste ranking acad?mico nacional no Brasil e no mundo e, finalmente, levantou os aspectos metodol?gicos e analisou seus principais resultados publicados ao longo da trajet?ria do RMFB. Trata-se de uma pesquisa fundamentalmente qualitativa e que realizou uma triangula??o metodol?gica entre an?lises bibliogr?ficas, documentais e tamb?m por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, articuladas de forma a produzir uma maior completude anal?tica do fen?meno estudado para atingir os objetivos da pesquisa. Como conclus?es desse trabalho observou-se os rankings acad?micos expandindo-se em quantidade e relev?ncia desde a d?cada de 1980 at? nossos dias e por todo o mundo, o Brasil como tendo o primeiro ranking acad?mico nacional por meio do RMFB da Playboy enquanto a literatura cient?fica ainda atribui esse fato ao ranking America?s Best Colleges (RABC) da revista U.S. News, a equipe da revista com amplo di?logo junto aos principais atores da educa??o superior brasileira, e as tabelas classificat?rias publicadas por esse ranking demonstrando uma domin?ncia da Universidade de S?o Paulo (USP) nos primeiros lugares dos cursos pesquisados na maior parte das 19 edi??es do RMFB.

The rising of the private rankings may be interpreted as result of the institutionalization process of an educational market of university education articulated to a moment in which remodeling processes of the National States are taking place and, intensified from the 1990 decade on, would have begun to operate based on principles typical of a market logic. The observation of the Ibero-american scenario allowed to identify three private rankings (50 Carreras - Los Mejores Centros Universit?rios; Ranking de Calidad de l?s Universidades Chilenas; and Ranking Universit?rio Folha RUF), generated and disseminated by press-media vehicles widely distributed in three important countries: El Mundo, in Spain; El Mercurio, in Chile; and Folha de S?o Paulo, in Brazil. The core objective of this work consists of studying these three private university rankings from a Compared Education perspective, aiming to understand their trajectory, functioning and the methodology employed to formulate them. The results of this investigation indicate that the scientific production concerning the rankings in the Iberoamerican space still is incipient. The comparative analysis conducted with the referred rankings showed closeness and separation points among them concerning the role performed by private rankings generated by newspapers of wide reach, the way each one addresses the issue of the complexity and diversity of the university national systems and the degree of objectivity or subjectivity from which their indicators are built. / As ?ltimas d?cadas v?m testemunhando um espa?o de centralidade para os chamados rankings universit?rios no Brasil, nos pa?ses ibero-americanos e no mundo, produzidos por inst?ncias governamentais oficiais (rankings p?blicos) ou a partir de avalia??es realizadas por ag?ncias n?o governamentais, vinculadas muitas vezes a empresas do segmento midi?tico (rankings privados). O surgimento de rankings privados pode ser interpretado como decorr?ncia do processo de institucionaliza??o de um mercado educacional de educa??o superior, articulado ao um momento em que se verificam processos de reforma dos Estados Nacionais que, intensificados a partir da d?cada de 1990, teriam passado a operar com base em princ?pios t?picos de uma l?gica de mercado. O exame do cen?rio ibero-americano permitiu identificar tr?s rankings privados (o 50 Carreras - Los Mejores Centros Universit?rios; o Ranking de Calidad de l?s Universidades Chilenas; e o Ranking Universit?rio Folha RUF) produzidos e disseminados por ve?culos de m?dia impressa de grande circula??o, em tr?s importantes pa?ses: o El Mundo, da Espanha; o El Mercurio, do Chile; e a Folha de S?o Paulo, do Brasil. O objetivo central do trabalho consiste em estudar, a partir de uma perspectiva da Educa??o Comparada, esses tr?s rankings universit?rios privados, buscando compreender sua trajet?ria, funcionamento e a metodologia utilizada para a formula??o dos mesmos. Os resultados desta investiga??o apontam que a produ??o cient?fica a respeito de rankings no espa?o ibero-americano ? ainda incipiente. A an?lise comparativa efetuada entre os tr?s rankings em quest?o evidenciou pontos de aproxima??o e de distanciamento entre os mesmos quanto ao papel desempenhado pelos rankings privados produzidos por jornais de grande circula??o; ? maneira como cada um deles trata a quest?o da complexidade e diversidade dos sistemas universit?rios nacionais; e quanto ao grau objetividade ou subjetividade a partir do qual s?o constru?dos seus indicadores.
