RESUMO

This dissertation has, as the object of interest, the relation between the State and the street population of Brasília, focusing on the social policies oriented to this social segment that were built and implemented in the last mandate of the Governor Joaquim Domingos Roriz in the Federal District (2003-2007). Thus, this present work aims to give fundaments to the study of this object from a macro-sociological approach of the conceptualization of poverty, distinguishing it from correlate concepts such as social exclusion and inequity. In addition, it aims to provide critical explanations to the codified interpretations about the causes of poverty in the capitalism, its reproduction and its present existence. In highlighting the Brazilian case and, more specifically, the situation in Brasilia, it shows how this phenomenon was originated and developed in the cities and emphasizes the need to include the urban poverty in the public agenda as a phenomenon that requires an immediate and consistent combat, and also efficient policies from the social point of view. Furthermore, it presents the reality of the street population of Brasília, highlighting the inherent difficulties of living in the streets and the strategies built to deal with them. Aiming to better understand this reality, it establishes a comparison with equivalent populations of other Brazilian cities, demonstrating that, in the Federal Capital, this social group has unique and specific characteristics. At the same time, it analyzes institutions that work directly with this segment of people studied, such as shelters, passage houses, childrens hostels and social development centers, besides other government organs responsible to implement and execute programs, benefits and services oriented to fight against the urban poverty in Brasília.
