This dissertation analyses the process of Civil Society.s participation within spaces of participatory democracy. Accordingly to researches and based on local reality, this work is focused on participation from the Civil Society.s Representatives of the Municipal Social Assistance Board in Aracaju, Sergipe. The main point emphasized on this research was to analyze careers of representative counselors from Civil Society.s entities, as well as, to understand who are those counselors coming from NGO.s; Non-profit Organizations; Associations; Unions and Representatives of Professional Classes. Therefore, to verify if those have the needed knowledge in order to be qualified as participative within Council.s Activities, by mostly believing that Entity.s Counselors have charitable and benevolent feelings which are far from political knowledge. Therefore, once we understand who the counselor is, we also aim to analyze the democratic participative institution in which such entity is inserted, i.e. at the council. So that, the council. social history was examined, along with entities within the same space; legitimate parts; and how it occurs daily. Accordingly to investigation, we used theoretical structure at the career.s examination in order to achieve the commitment period along every counselor.s life cycle, understanding so far the counselor.s participation as a process. Afterwards, we used the Social Movement.s Theory, specifically the one related to understanding historic processes and political opportunities, aiming to understand how the political system influences institutions and actions of parts involved. An option onto the methodological gathered data consisted of council.s history research, as well minute of meetings and counselors. interviews, with a broad observation of their meetings. The research occurred during July, 2010 to July, 2012, and it allowed a wide comprehension of how historical process, along with legislations and political conjunctures, could interfere within the council.s configuration nowadays. Our summary points out to a present participation of the Civil Society.s Council on different ways, some really participates in every process, having some knowhow and academicals knowledge which increases their competence, while others were participating only during regular meetings. Few of Civil Society.s Counselors had demonstrated, therefore, a previous knowledge regarding the Social Assistance Politics, where others are more interested to learn based on council.s participation. Moreover, every Civil Society. representative part nowadays is distinguished from the ones in the past, considering that they were endowed with benevolence and charity only. However, there are some barriers which do not allow a broad participation, power on the government.s agenda, as well some entities with financial dependence.
