摘要：The aim of this paper was to carry out an analysis of the scientific production related to volleyball. To meet the objective, it was situated 139 scientific articles available in Portuguese in Lilacs, Medline, Scielo and CAPES Journal Portal databases. From the mapped data, the explanations were based on the teachings of Pierre Bourdieu, from which we identified that the research topics more attended by production reflect the history of the academic field of Physical Education. At the same time, it was emphasized the integration of researchers in dominant institutions of the sports field as a possible element that also tends to influence the election of the most important aspects to be studied. This finding points to the shadowing between the academic and sporting fields as a possibility to justify the observed deficiency of studies not intended for high performance in this modality.
