This dissertation is focused on the study of careers of black movement s militants whose political commitment presents the following features: a simultaneous involvement with both political parties and the black movement; a full-time dedication to militancy, and; the filling of state positions in left-wing governments. The main questions of the work are the grasp of the social resources required for filling governmental posts as well as the understanding of the historical, social, and cultural policies that gave rise to that pattern of political activism in the Brazilian State of Sergipe. The theoretical and methodological orientation of the research combined a set of analytical schemes borrowed from the sociology of social movements and the sociology of activism, using notions such as structure of political opportunities, processes of political involvement and social networks. The results show that there are some favorable conditions for the emergence of the pattern of political involvement and militancy at stake: the political detente and the end of the military rule in Brazil, the pressure of both international organizations and the Brazilian black movement over the State, and the rise of political allies within the federal government. As to the features of those militants who held state positions, the works highlights the centrality of a militant capital gathered over within the networks of the Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT) and the Partido Comunista do Brasil (PcdoB), and also within the black movement.
