- ItemGeração energética e processos tecnológicos sustentáveis : impasses e alternativas para o Brasil(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2002-10-28) Bragato, Cláudia Guio; Dalcomuni, Sonia Maria; Arthmar, Rogério; Almeida, Luciana Togeiro deThe following research approaches the interaction between the technological paradigm subjacent to the Brazilian energetic power nucleus and environment, centralising on the electricity generation centre, in a sustainable growth perspective. One searches to think over whether the Brazilian power supply crisis noticed in April 2001 and consequent actions and as well as quests for solutions to the resolution of the same, tends to solve or block the sector development and the Brazilian economy in a perspective of economic growth associated to social equity and environmental protection, according to what s been prioritised by sustainable development concept. Hence, the technological options for currently used powergenerating techniques and those in discussion are analysed regarding its positive and negative aspects in terms of generating environmental external influences. Technological innovation is focused as an alternative capable of changing the hydrocarbon paradigm predominant in the world power supply generation. One does a historical rescue of the sector development, also approaching the main reforms on the Brazilian electric institutional sector up to the current configuration aimed at knowing the new sector agents involved in the regulatory process, integration, and support. Through the analysis of internal or external conditioners, one can figure their capability of contributing or delaying the adoption of a sustainable trajectory for the national electric sector. The achieved conclusion is, despite worrying on maintaining its energetic nucleus clean, Brazil, at a first moment, provided the acquiring of a Priority Thermoelectric Program , that even though having a complementary character to the actual generating park, will be able to contribute to an energetic dependence on a pollutant fossil combustible, amongst other existent possibilities, without ensuring the inexistence of the future supply crisis. The transformation in concepts, as well as society values will indeed contribute for the restructuring of global energetic economy, boosting the renewable sources portion within the world energetic nucleus and will allow humanity economic progress growth, facing a wider continuing power demand in the future.
- ItemPropriedade intelectual com ênfase em trade secrets : criptologia e performance econômica(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2003-06-26) Santos, Júlio César dos; Brasil, Gutemberg Hespanha; Dalcomuni, Sonia Maria; Brasil, Gutemberg Hespanha; Albuquerque, Eduardo da Motta eThis work presents a theoretical approach on intellectual property with emphasis in trade secrets as entry barriers. Progress in cryptology in the field of the mathematics can be added to the theoretical efforts developed in microeconomics in industrial organization. In this context, cryptology is rescued historically and its main functions are presented in the intellectual property, especially in trade secrets. This research questions: Why do the firms cryptograph their productive processes? Has intellectual property, especially trade secrets, been playing an important role as a barrier to entry in the contemporary economy? How can cryptology and its respective developments in mathematics contribute to the strengthening of the industrial secret? It is noticed that in spite of the outstanding presence of cryptography and of the incorporeal goods in the contemporary economy, the theoretical analyses are still scarce, as are case studies and databases on intellectual property and mainly, on trade secrets. This research contributes to explication of its concepts and warns about the importance of intensification of scientific research on this topic, in order to reach a better understanding of managerial economical dynamics at the present time.
- ItemBrasil, 1979-1989 : uma década perdida?(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2003-07-11) Rostoldo, Jadir Peçanha; Soares, Geraldo Antonio; Arthmar, Rogério; Siqueira, Maria da Penha SmarzaroAnalyses the transformations of the Brazilian Society, from 1979 to 1989, making reflections that take to a wider comprehension of the country problems. The analysis was done through a multi-disciplinary view, questioning the expression Lost Decade , which the period is usually connected to. Recovers the economic politics from 1955 to 1989. Describes the cultural expressions, social movements and syndicalist movement of the 1980 s, showing their transforming action. Runs over about the redemocratization process, since the politic amnesty until the direct elections for President. Brings the social indicators of the period, including the Human Development Index (HDI) and its relation to the concept of human development. The conclusions show that even there was economic recession, the society had positive achievements in many aspects and the period can be considered as a period of changes and transformations, not lost.
- ItemInovação na cultura do mamão : geração e difusão do conhecimento(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2004-07-08) Vieira, Andrezza Rosalém; Morandi, Angela Maria; Dalcomuni, Sonia Maria; Costa, Adelaide de Fátima Santana da
- ItemCooperação, aprendizado e capacitação inovativa das empresas de confecções do arranjo produtivo em Colatina-ES(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2004-09-21) Nunes, Dênis Pedro; Villaschi Filho, Arlindo; Morandi, Angela Maria; Campos, Renato RamosThis paper has its theme on the competitive insertion of micro and small size enterprises in local productive arrangements. It uses theoretical view on innovation economy, more precisely, the new-schumpeterian vision of innovation. The case study of the clothing arrangement in Colatina had its general objective in identifying the productive context of the whole micro and small enterprises, always searching to comprehend the elements that contributed and dificulted the process of innovation capacity, which means, the required process to the promotion of innovation, dynamic competitivity and local economic development of the arrangement. It is evident that the arrangement in Colatina is still low-mature and its innovative and management capacity in general is weak. The nature of the arrangement's coordination is lowdeveloped due to, mainly, to the existence of a low level of trust and interaction among the agents.
- ItemConcorrência e pirataria na indústria fonográfica a partir dos anos 90(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2005-03-15) Nascimento, Harrison Floriano do; Herscovici, Alain Pierre Claude Henri; Grassi, Robson Antonio; Oliveira, José TeófiloThis work aims to determine the impact of independent recorders and fake products as a menace on the oligopoly power stability of transnational recorders (known as majors ). In the first part it s presented the characteristics and specific features of the phonographic industry, which will differentiate it from the other markets and contribute to the knowledge of the segment competitiveness. Following, one aims to identify, through the use of the ECD model of industrial organization, the main barriers to the entrance of independent recorders in a market dominated by the majors . At last, the access to advertisement and distribution media due to the Internet, like free music distribution programs, offers new competitiveness perspectives for the independent recorders and intensifies the fakeness in the segment, which provoked an unsatisfactory performance of the majors in the years 1990 and 2000.
- ItemImplementação de um algoritmo de mecânica dos fluidos computacional projetado para plataformas de processamento paralelo com memória distribuída(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2005-06-30) De Angeli, João Paulo; Valli, Andréa Maria Pedrosa; Souza, Alberto Ferreira de; Reis Junior, Neyval Costa; Amorim, Cláudio Luis; Oliveira, Elias Silva deThis work discusses the implementation of a numerical algorithm for simulating incompressible fluid flows, based on the finite difference method, and designed for parallel computing platforms with distributed-memory, particularly for clusters of workstations. The solution algorithm for the Navier-Stokes equations utilizes an explicit scheme for pressure and an implicit scheme for velocities. The parallel implementation is based on domain decomposition, where the original calculation domain is decomposed into several blocks, each of which given to a separate processing node. All nodes then execute computations in parallel, each node on its associated sub-domain. The parallel computations include initialization, coefficient generation, linear solution on the sub-domain, and inter-node communication. The exchange of information across the sub-domains, or processors, is achieved using the message passing interface standard, MPI. The use of MPI ensures portability across different computing platforms ranging from massively parallel machines to clusters of workstations. Three different optimization strategies were evaluated in order to improve the computational performance of the algorithm, which include techniques exploring a reduction in the communication volume between processors and a more efficient utilization of the microprocessor s cache memory. In order to evaluate the performance levels obtained, and to analyze the effectiveness of the optimization strategies adopted, simulations using a 64 nodes cluster were executed. The simulations were performed using 2 to 56 processors, where execution time and speed-up were measured. The results indicate that the optimizations related to communication factors can improve the speed-up obtained up to 165%, while the cache memory optimization technique used can improve the speed-up obtained in further 40%.
- ItemRegulamentação dos direitos trabalhistas no Brasil : uma tentativa de conciliação entre o capital e o trabalho (1937-1945)(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2005-09-13) Betat, Inara dos Santos; Soares, Geraldo Antônio; Pereira, Guilherme Henrique; Arthmar, RogérioThe subject that motivated this study is the social matter in Brazil when the ruling system in power was the regime known as the New State Estado Novo . For better understanding of this problem it becomes essential to recollect the historical evolution of this period from the end of the 1920s until the end of the New State, in 1945, which it is the period considered for this study. The laboring claims for better conditions of work, better wages and, therefore, for better conditions of life retrace the 1930 s, when the workers were treated, simply, as "a police matter". The concern towards the social issue started to move over after 1930 when Getúlio Vargas was made the new president of Brazil. Together, all Brazilian states assembled in order to build a political framework controlling the relations between the capital and the work. The political first concern was to cool off the social conflicts that were spreading, especially, in the great urban centers throughout the country. Therefore, the proceedings on the broaden objectives, that were to promote the development of the industry in the country, were guaranteed. Throughout the 1930 s decade, gradually, a set of working laws were standardized, and later on, in 1943, by the end of the New State, systematically organized in only one document, the Consolidação das Leis Trabalhistas (CLT). Although the working laws had brought a few guarantees to the workers, there were some side effects that started to hinder the workers liberty of speech, fact that was understood by the government as necessary so that the industrialization process could actually take place.
- ItemUma análise sobre os discursos que tratam do terceiro setor no Brasil: a ação das ONGs(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2006-06-09) Barbosa, Raquel de Moura; Carcanholo, Reinaldo Antonio; Herkenhoff, Maria Beatriz Lima; Barreto, Carlos Eduardo MontañoThe purpose of this paper is to analyze the debate on the action of the Third Sector in Brazil highlighting Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs). The main characteristic of this debate is the theoretical opposition among authors, activists and scholars in which practical, ideological and political positions are at stake. The objective was to deeply investigate these arguments focusing on the analytical approach used by the authors in their texts. To do this we have appropriated the dimensions of essence and appearance of reality, according to Marx theory, as the starting point for our study.
- ItemMediando uma cultura da não-violência : a municipalização da medida de liberdade assistida na integração social do adolescente em conflito com a lei(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2006-06-21) Duque, Sidnéia Bento; Raizer, Eugenia Célia; Sales, Mione Apolinário; Rosa, Edinete MariaCase study explore that analyses the social educational measures of controlled freedom of attainment for the adolescent take in conflict with the law develop in the city of the Colatina/ES. The current study had like goal analyses the perception of adolescent take in conflict with the law about the social educational measures of controlled freedom, aiming to know the important values in the social integration process. The values should be mediation for the no-violence culture. It was realized interviews with fifteen (15) adolescents that participated of the social educational measures of controlled freedom of the Colatina/ES city hall. It was realized questionnaire for the technique group besides focal group with adolescent´s relatives for corroborate with informations furnished. The approach is quanti-quality and the technique datum analyses utilized was the content analyze. According to perception of the adolescents the program got prominence family and culture values. The work, the program was considerated important with regard to professional qualification, but deficient in the insertion in work market. The citizenship and the education like politician issue are still insufficient, because reduction of the State promotes individuals solutions for satisfaction social necessities. The measure of controlled freedom program shows like a tentative of articulate social nets around the problems that involves adolescent take in conflict with the law. The experience of the Colatina/ES city hall could be reproduced in others realities, because uses universal elements without forget the specifics of the local reality.
- ItemParticipação, sociedade civil e a capacidade de influenciar políticas sociais : o caso do Conselho Municipal de Educação da Serra (CMES)(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2006-07-10) Ferreira, Andreza Alves; Mendonça, Luiz Jorge Vasconcellos Pessôa de; Camacho, Luíza Mitiko Yshiguro; Manfroi, Vania MariaThe present work analyses the relationship among civil society and his capability to influence social policies through a case study the City Council of Education of Serra (CMES). It is looked to evaluate these spaces represent a new standard of relationship between State and Civil Society, leading to an effective participation of citizens since that the historical pattern had been a closed one, only admitting the participation of governmental agents. It argues that the process in course in the CMES have extended the debate, reverberating in the ears of society and, so, permitting a wide visibility of the educational policies, mainly if compared with the previous periods (until middle of the decade of 1990). The experience of CMES has made possible technical and political apprenticeship in educational policies at local level. In spite of these positive aspects, it concludes that political participation of citizens is quite limited and, in the most of the cases, restricted to few organizations that have assent in the Council. Since the low level of communication between these organizations and their members and the population in general, the defense of public interests is jeopardized for these are eclipsed by particular and corportative interests.
- ItemConselhos municipais antidrogas : entre o sonho e a realidade(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2006-07-25) Leal, Fabiola Xavier; Garcia, Maria Lúcia Teixeira; Herkenhoff, Maria Beatriz Lima; Carvalho, Denise Bomtempo Birche deThe policies of confrontation to the improper use of drugs have if developed throughout 67 years and of this context, this Dissertation consists of a Study of Case on the City councils Antidrogas (COMADs) of the State of the Espirito Santo (ES). It has as objective to analyze the COMADs searching to identify as the formularization of the Municipal Policies Antidrogas occurs; to analyze its abilities and attributions; to identify and to analyze the composition; to verify as the civil society is represented in these spaces and as its participation occurs; to identify and to analyze the developed actions; to verify if the abilities established in law they guarantee to the COMADs forms of active participation in the management of the policies antidrugs in the city; to identify and to analyze the main used strategies of decision in the COMADs. Of the 78 cities of the ES, only 26.9% had created COMAD being only 01 in functioning. A listing was mounted contends 21 councils (being that they had 19 sent some documentation and/or information). Telephonic contacts and visits to the cities with active or inactive councils had been carried through. For the collection of piece of information they had been used: documentary research and interviews group (Focal Group) and individual. For analysis of the piece of information it was used content analysis. The COMADs had been focused from its institucional configuration and of the practical ones that they develop. The analysis was structuralized in 2 axles: Process of Creation; Functioning and Maintenance of the Council. The majority (68%) appeared in 2001 and the maximum time of functioning was of approximately 3 years. The functions legally established these agencies had enclosed 04 fields of activity: Prevention; Fiscalization and Repression; Normative actions for functioning of the council; e Treatment. It is noticed that the Concil doesn t obtain to accomplish its deliberative character. The number of components of the council varied between 09 and 39 bearers, being the occupying civil society of the biggest number of seats in 05 cities, presenting 08 main entities being the Church with bigger representation. E the governmental sphere in 14 cities, possesss 13 represented agencies, being the Government secretaries with bigger representation. The civil society was more present in the meetings (54%). The numerical parity occurred in 03 cities. It was identified that the Executive corresponds 69% of the representatives followed by Judiciary (17%) and the Legislative one (14%). The more frequent subjects of guideline had been: organization of the council (43%), qualification/ action of prevention (26%) and Treatment (5%). The actions had limited it the accomplishment of lectures and municipal events of combat to the drugs. In a general way, the COMADs if configures as a phenomenon political, institucional, social and cultural, demanding theoretical and conceptual elaborations, historical incursions and empirical recitals that have to see with the occured transformations in the relations between State and society in the country. The council had still not obtained to separate themselves of practical authoritarian and the imposing ones on the part of whom he withholds the command. The effective has been challenges for the council autonomy, continued formation of the council members, transformation of the guideline in agenda, overcoming of the infrastructure conditions, culture of transparency and diffusion of information. What it is is that the process of formularization and implementation of the policies oscillates between what would have to be and what effectively it has been.
- ItemA experiência de liberdade assistida comunitária na percepção de seus operadores(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2006-07-28) Passamani, Maria Emília; Rosa, Edinete Maria; Santos, Maria de Fátima Souza; Herkenhoff, Maria Beatriz LimaThis paper aims to know the perception that the operators of The Attended Freedom social-educative measure have regarding their Program. This study began from the estimated idea that the Communitarian Program of Attended Freedom House Rising Sun is successful at the accompaniment of adolescents in conflict with the law. That happens because it takes care of offenders adolescents without arresting them, preserving their living with their families and in their communities, as it is established by the Brazilian Children and Adolescents Statute. This paper identifies the activities developed by the institution regarding the attendance to the offenders adolescents, who are submitted to the Attended Freedom social-educative measures. It presents all the adolescents profiles who were helped by the Program in the following categories: number of taken care adolescents, age, gender, education level, infraction they committed, familiar income, use of drugs, kind of drug that were used, work, relapsed infraction. It identifies the aspects that make the accompaniment process easier in the institution House Rising Sun and the main impediments that hinder the implementation process of the Attended Freedom measure. The collected numbers and information were studied by the Speech Analysis method, for being the most adjusted one to achieve the research aims. The operators perceptions of the of Attended Freedom social-educative measure will be presented from some aspects that were considered more important during the interviews, as motivation, negative and positive aspects, the services nets, partnerships, the accounts rendering, its role in the Social Politics scene and the adolescents concepts, adolescents in conflict with the law, pedagogical proposal, emancipation, resocialization and youth protagonism.
- ItemNanotecnologia no agronegócio : um estudo econômico da "língua eletrônica" na cafeicultura(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2006-08-22) Koken, Fernanda Sobreira Cossate Van de; Dalcomuni, Sonia Maria; Grassi, Robson Antonio; Martins, Paulo RobertoFollowing the Schumpeterian theoretical approach this work is founded in the conception that the world economic history is a history of technological revolutions. These revolutions are impel by the development of new products and new process of production and distribution that incessantly revolutionize the economic system “from inside”. In this context it is agued that the contemporary society lives the emergency of a new “technological paradigm” characterized for the convergence of innovations in the areas of nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technologies and cognition (the NBIC´s paradigm). This dissertation ransoms concepts and ideas of evolutionary economics about the innovative processes; describe and ransoms historically the nanotechnologies development; focuses an specific nanotechnological innovation: ‘the cyber tongue’ and finally discuss it’s function in coffees quality improvement program in Brazil.
- ItemDinâmica versus estática no programa de pesquisa pós-keynesiano(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2006-09-13) Krakowiak, Sérgio; Herscovici, Alain Pierre Claude Henri; Afonso, Marco Aurélio Crocco; Grassi, Robson AntonioThe first chapter underlines the fact that economic science is provided with two different paradigms. One accepts the ergodicity hypotesis while the other does not. In a strict sense, this hypothesis refers to the possibility of making relyable statistical forecasts. However, in a broader sense it is tyed up with the notion of the immutability of the economic laws, and pre-determination of the reality. Economic schools o thought that postulates full employment equilibrium as a necessary achievement, are inserted in the ergodic paradigm. Keynes and Post-Keynesian theories are non ergodic. These schools postulate that future is fundamentally uncertain. The levels of employment and income are given by the short and long run expectations, the interest rate and propensity to consume, all historical variables. There is no necessary convergence process to the full employment equilibrium; and they hardly converge to the equilibrium, even when it is below full employment. The shifting equilibrium model, shows that a single error in the short run expectations is capable of rising a systematic sequence of disiquilibrium among realized agregate demand and agregate supply. Harrod s model (considered by Kregel [1980] a variant of the Keynes` model). Exhibits the same results.
- ItemForma de valorização do capital por meio dos loteamentos fechados no município de Domingos Martins-ES(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2006-09-15) Bertocchi, Letícia Pitanga; Campos Júnior, Carlos Teixeira de; Nakatani, Paulo; Oseki, Jorge Hajime
- ItemA participação popular no Conselho de Direitos da Criança e do Adolescente de Vitória : promessa ou realidade?(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2006-09-18) Melim, Juliana Iglesias; Leite, Izildo Corrêa; Tatagiba, Luciana Ferreira; Manfroi, Vania MariaThe trajectory of the Brazilian social policies of attendance to the child and the adolescent in them did not leave a legacy of glories as for the citizenship of this parcel of the population. But in 1990, after the promulgation of the Statute of the Child and the Adolescent is that these had passed to be considered citizens of rights. Of this form, in the attempt to consolidate this new paradigm the Statute also foresees changes in the management of the social policies. One of these changes is the institutionalization of the Council of Rights of public, on the same level, deliberative and responsible the Child and the Adolescent, agency for formulating the policies come back toward infancy and the adolescence. The present dissertação consists of a study on the Council of Rights of the Child and the Adolescent of the city of Vitória (ES), involving three specific managements: 1993-1995, 1995-1997, 2002-2004. It has as objective to verify if the participation politics developed in the Council is compatible with the space formal instituted for such participation and, in negative case, to understand the reasons of the joined imbalance . For in such a way, they had been used as techniques of collection of data: the documentary research and interviews half-structuralized in depth. For analysis of the data it was used content analysis. The Council was focused from the perspective of democratization of the power to decide processes in the Brazilian society, marked for a culture politics that when he did not limit, completely restricted the popular participation of the decision spaces politics. Thus, the analysis was structuralized considering the following aspects: the composition of the Council, the representation of the council members, the objective of the insertion of the entities in the Council, the relation of the council member with the users who represents, the relation of the civil society with the public power, the vision of the council members on democracy, participation and on the using child and the adolescent of the policies formulated for the Council. The results found in allow them to affirm that even so the Council is a possibility of bigger popular participation in the direction of social politics e, on account of this, a space where possible movements of against-hegemony of the popular sectors can be disclosed, the participation that if developed in locus of the present study still finds many limits to consolidate itself while such. In this way, the Council of Rights of the Child and Adolescent it of Vitória not yet obtained to fulfill, in ample way, the promise of democratization and bigger popular participation in the debate around the social policies come back toward the children and adolescents it city. The consolidation of the democracy and the participation in the elaboration of the policies, the effective autonomy of the council members and the entities of the civil society, the presence of the users in the power to decide process, the representation of collective interests has been challenge for the Council and consequently the formularization of universal and warranting social politics of rights.
- ItemParticipação : um estudo sobre idosos(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2006-10-20) Prado, Tania Maria Bigossi do; Moro, Maristela Dal; Silva, Alacir Ramos; Corleto, Alejandra PastoriniThis work aims to analyze the contribution of Programa Vivendo a Melhor Idade (Living the Best Age Program) of Vitória City Hall, in the conquest of effective participation of elderly in society, by means of the specific objectives: ) to identify if the program it includes the elderly in a participating management; b) to verify if the program subsidizes the political participation of the elderly in the struggle for achievement of rights and guarantee of the already conquered ones; c) to know if the program is making possible the preservation of autonomy, the promotion of integrity and the active and healthful aging. The technical procedures used were bibliographical, documentary and field researches. For the field research, halfstructuralized interviews were made with the elderly and social assistants inserted in the program and the collected material was analyzed in a qualitative approach. It was possible to identify some elements which indicate that this Program has given a relatively positive response to those questions. However, there are some obstacles to make possible the conquest of participation, autonomy and integration. In this Program the elderly have chance to insert themselves in physical, artistic, playful, educating and leisure activities, among others. All of them have great importance to experiment the process of aging in a positive way; however, a persistence concerning the conquest of the elderly participation does not appear, either in the program management or in public space for claiming. It was not observed any work on a perspective between different ages which could involve family and community. All the elderly state that they take account of their own proper lives and decisions, and that may a signal that their autonomy has been rescued and preserved. Although there are not registers of any effective contribution of the Program in this direction, it is undeniable that it subsidizes their attitude front to their daily questions. Regarding to the promotion of active and healthy aging, it is easily noticeable in their way of speaking, looking and act. It expresses itself when interviewed elderly speak of the motivation to go out and to overcome depressive states, the improvement of physical conditions and it is also implicit when they point out the condition of being aged as an important stage of the life, when they mention their conquests in relation to the latest generation and the possibility of fulfilling their freedom dream. In synthesis, even though the Living the Best Age Program can contribute to promote the effective participation of the elderly in society, it is still found incipient, because one cannot perceive either an effective contribution to consolidate the political participation of the elderly or an articulation of these groups in the aspects of citizenship, right defense and political action. It has structural limitations for such achievements in a society that, besides marked for an iniquitous inequality, presents an incipient culture in Politics - inexperienced and distant from the participation exercise - resulted from decades of authoritarian practices.

- ItemConselho Popular de Vitória : formação e trajetória de um movimento, 1986-2004(Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, 2007-04-27) Pinto, Roselaine Carlos; Ferraz, Ana Targina Rodrigues; Herkenhoff, Maria Beatriz Lima; Krohling, Beatriz Stella M.This paper is a case study about the CPV (Vitória Popular Council) organization that represents the resident associations in the city of Vitória from its foundation and in 1986 to 2004. Based on authors who studied the political participation of civil societies in the 1980s and 90s, the aim is to perform an analysis to specify the acting profile of this movement in terms of interest and demand; its role in the movements of the neighborhoods it represents and its relation with the city government. The study strategy adopted qualitative methodology, which allows understanding particular phenomena, facts and procedures of small groups. Results showed that CPV, throughout its history, has changed its acting focus. If in the 80s the movement had a more independent position towards the city government, in the 90s it took a position closer to the government, strengthened by the opening process and institutionalization of channels of participation. Nevertheless, this posture would lead to an extremely fragile relation with the government and neighborhood entities, throughout the years. Since the CPV has had a position of government s partner and legitimator of actions, it has quit being an operator of the civil society s demands and become a government collaborator.
