RESUMO

The present Thesis theme refers to the fluvial navigation in the Old Republic (1889-1930). We will analyze the activity development at rivers Jacui, Sinos, Taquari, Caí and Gravataí and Lake Guaíba, because of the connection between those rivers and this lake. Some common characteristics, for those rivers areas like the localization at the north of the state, the fluvial connection with the capital and the ground occupation ways took us to think this territory as a region. So, in this study, it was named "center-north region". In the analyzed period, the fluvial navigation participated as an important state economy component, and, just for that, it was present in the governance plans and projects. However the full activity development needed not only public, but private actuation. At Rio Grande do Sul, during the Old Republic, it was constituted a state administration with a great influence all over its territory. Thus, we centered this work, referring to the public service, in the state government actuation. It was the responsible for the sailing concession to the navigation enterprises, as well the creation and maintenance of the needed understructure. To the private sector, here understood as the ships and navigation enterprises proprietors, it was hoped the ships acquisition and sustenance for the travels realizations and, yet, the performing of the commercial transactions among the country and the capital. As a consequence, the public agent was the responsible for promoting the rivers navigability, meanwhile the private sector did the operations to make real this navigability. Fluvial navigation, at the Old Republic beginning, was well-structured and in development, but, at the end of that period, it faced difficulties that led it into a crisis perception
