THEORETICAL CONSIDERATIONS RELEVANT TO THE ANALYSIS OF THE PRACTICES OF SOCIAL CONTROL IN THE ADMINISTRATIVE COUNCILS OF SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS IN BRAZIL

Authors

Abstract

These theoretical considerations underpin a project of case study research which seeks to characterize, demonstrate and analyze both the performance of the administrative councils called for with the implementation of the Brazilian public policy known as the Social Organizations Project and the impact of the decisions of these councils on the strategic management of social organizations. The importance of the research project derives from the fact that, until the present moment, there have been no empirical studies carried out on this subject. The theoretical perspective which supports the analysis is that of the New Public Administration and of social theories which discuss participation, in particular those aspects which touch on questions dealing with participation in decision processes and related to governance in the sphere of action both of the State and of social organizations.
