The objective of this paper is to report a brief history of the evolution of the right to education, drawing a parallel with political decentralization (federalism) and public funding of education in the Brazilian constitutional history. The Constitutions of 1824, 1891, 1934, 1946, 1967/69, 1988 are briefly analyzed, as well as related infra-constitutional normative acts. Three brief conclusions can be pointed out: 1) there is an intimate relationship between the history of brazilian federalism and the history of brazilian education, whose contents adapt according to the political thought prevailing at the time and the new dimensions of rights that are intended to be protected; 2) autocracies (dictatorships of 1937 and 1964) do not deal well with the idea of self-limitation brought by conditional grants to the educational sector; 3) there is a clear evolution of public educational finance techniques, which adapt to the new social, political and economic needs of each Brazilian constitutional moment. The research is theoretical, using bibliographic materials, with the support of national doctrine and the analysis of normative texts. The data sources are basically: constitutions, books, theses, dissertations and magazine articles.
