Abstract

This text deals with the creation of the first university degree in Physical Education in Bahia. This search aims to show the behind scenes and to realize the academic and political movements. Therefore the theoretical and methodological aspects of Cultural History were adopted as methodology, focusing on oral history by mean of interviews with people involved in the foundation of the Course. The data from oral sources were understood as “versions of the past,” socially situated and collated with those ones obtained in documents and specialized literature. It has been possible to identify the articulations of foreign policy of the University and the use of public resources for the creation of the graduate course in Physical Education, the institutional biases against Physical Education, the cohesion in the creation of that course and the influence of the National School of Physical Education and Sport in it as the search result
