This thesis sought to raise the issue around the state interference in the slave relations by government authorities of the captaincy of the Holy Spirit, from 1781 to 1821. Through the slave actions, specifically the resistance, understood in this work from the daily negotiated better living conditions in captivity leaks, aquilombamentos and uprisings aimed to analyze the political representation of the captaincy of governors about those actions. The data showed that slavery did not take the affairs of the government and not consisted of main concern of the political agenda of those authorities. The establishment of agreements between masters and slaves appeared as a way to preserve the slave relations within the manorial relations and pointed to the private nature of slavery in the Lusitanian colonial domains. Although the intervention of government authorities has been given on behalf of the common good, the action of these leaders was not absolute, limited by the complexity of the relationships established in daily captaincy of the Holy Spirit. They served as the basis of administrative inquiries correspondence between the various levels of power in the Captaincy of the Holy Spirit. The sources were compiled, quantified and interpreted in the light of the meanings conferred to the terms at the time. Much of the analysis consisted of the search in dictionaries and reference works for the interpretation of documents. Besides of the general characteristics of the concerns of captaincy Authorities invested by the Lusitanian crown, found himself black mutiny two farms Guarapari (Guaraparim), coastal town south of the captaincy, which lasted for over 40 years. The confrontation between this singular case and ordinary little attention to issues of slavery by capixabas authorities, can be seen that the interference of the State, through the governors, occurred only when they were asked to arbitrate relevant conflicts to manorial relationships or at times when slave actions could endanger the maintenance of order , namely the occurrence of riots and disorders.
