From the annals of the events and works produced on the Regional Meetings of History of Education in Rio de Janeiro, it was identified how historiographical writings on the History of Education event in the region are concerned with and reflect on theoretical and methodological meanings from the local perspective, enabling the recognition of identities places, something that was confirmed with presentations in practically all sections at the IV EHED, with topics on the Baixada Fluminense.
