Abstract

This article analyzes Brazilian studies on street markets to describe a panorama of scientific production, highlighting its regional characteristics, similarities and diversities. The research was based on a systematic bibliographical survey of 434 papers classified according to their regional distribution, vehicle of origin, year of publication, methodology and area of ​​knowledge. Fifty studies (11.50%) were analyzed, selected by regional distribution criteria, scope and relevance, indicated by the number of citations. It was found that the Brazilian street markets are very different, both by the types of vendors and by the regional context. Marketsare important for urban supply and income generation for rural producers and vendors, and although they promote strong socioeconomic activity and have great importance in food security, they receive limited public investments, usually made by municipal administrations.
Keywords: urban supply; street markets; short circuits; food security.
