This thesis analyses the political nature inherent to the development work done by Sebrae s working system. The research establishes a dialogue between philosophy and political sociology, resulting in the creating a political development definition, from the concepts of Political governance (increase of the public spaces of power; power as a key element of the Policy; associacionism and contesting), political capital (the importance of trust to build social capital; political recruitment and political inclusion: formation of new political leaders) and autogovern (empowerment; protagonism and responsiveness). We also analyse the performance of Sebrae in the area of public politics and its Sebrae s reposture as an agent of local and sectorial development, factors that consolidate its institutional role and corroborate the hypothesis of the research about the implications of the acting of this institution in the political development.

The World Bank edited in 1995 a book that announces that people affected by interventions for the development must be included in the decision process . In this essay, the World Bank did a survey about 121 potable water supply projects to rural zones in 49 countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America, in which were studied more than 140 variables. The conclusion was that the implemented projects where there was any kind of community participation were that which obtained the most successful results. From 1996 on, the World Bank gives the priority to loan projects that includes participative methods on its elaboration and development. Further, the participative budget was included by United Nations Organization (UNO) as one of the best experiences of the government during the Habitat II conference, in July 1996 at Istanbul, Turkey. Also, the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) published in 1997 a book about participation which says that the participation is not simply an idea, but a new pattern of cooperation to the development of the 90 s . In Brazil, this tendency is noticed in relation to the participative budget, which is our object of study. The aim of this work was to discuss under the Politic Science view about the existence or not of a re-division of the decision power related to the allocation of public resources for investments between the Legislative Power and the police officers of the Participative Budget. The work shows that in the three cities that were researched was detected a loss of politic power by the legislative, that refers to the right of the town councilors to interfere, reallocate and direct the budget to public investments in detriment to the police officers of the PB, that started to practice a competency function of the legislative power. That means a loss of autonomy of the legislative in relation to the executive power with the introduction of participative budget managements.

On this research we have analyzed the agrarian problem of press in the southwest of Paraná, in 2003. To give support to the research, we used two daily newspapers from Paraná: Jornal de Beltrão, from Francisco Beltrão and Diário do Povo, from Pato Branco, and two weekly newspapers, O Palmense and Correio Regional, both from Palmas. The theoretical empirical model adopted is the agenda setting, a hypotheses that holds that media participates in the construction and definition of people s choices. We have focused on this method the agenda of the media, aiming at noticing, though it, the elaboration of the micro social agrarian agenda. The procedures include, besides library research, the quantitative content analysis of these newspapers, and some interviews with editors and leaders in the area. The research presents some relevant topics as well. The agrarian theme involves, above all, the historical perception of the importance of the land and of the rural sector in the political-economical tradition of the country, as well as the fact that it is a permanent social problem. Considering a political perspective, the year of 2003 marks the beginning of a new government, with President Lula, whose proposals indicated sensitive changes in the policies for the land sector. Finally, in the academic-empirical dimension, we found that there is not enough study on agenda setting in this region, specially those related to the agrarian theme, even though this is a geographic area marked by historical land conflicts. In general, we have observed that the local newspapers are legitimating and act in mutual level, producing and exaggerating versions that are set by interest groups, which quite often reverberate in the press. Through the analysis of the graphs and of specific books, we noticed that the history of agents and media professionals; the class appeals that mobilize the actors and the level of dependence in the relations of native press with official government influence the local agenda. We have also identified that this determination occurs substantially through the editorial process, be it under the connivance of political power, or through the prerogative of the financial power. We have also noticed the relations between the mobility of the actors and the visibility of the agrarian theme in the micro regional press, through fields like tradition, family, status and publicity.

A cidade de São Carlos, situada no interior do estado de São Paulo, é o foco deste trabalho. O período estudado vai de 1889 a 1901. A questão apresentada nesta pesquisa é a representação nos jornais, da cidade, dos imigrantes e dos negros. O objetivo é considerar a importância dos jornais e das representações públicas, noticiadas por estes, após a abolição da escravatura e compreender um pouco da maneira como as pessoas produziam, refletiam e representavam valores de época, apreendendo como essas representações eram evidenciadas nos jornais e como podiam ter influência na formação da opinião pública, nas imagens que as pessoas elaboravam sobre a cidade e na construção de estereótipos étnicos e raciais.
