Abstract

Since the 1988 Constitution postulated representative democracy in Brazil, citizen participation has not been exclusive to the electoral period, when citizens choose their representatives in the different legislative bodies of the government - federal, state and municipal. Although from then on, popular sovereignty could be exercised in a direct and/or participative way with interactions with different legislative, executive and bureaucratic bodies at different levels of government,  in 2016 the political Brazilian context changed substantially putting the 1988 constitutional precepts on hold and leaving the possibility of democratic managerial practices in suspension. The main goal of this article is to contextualize the emergence of the concept of social management in Brazil and to verify to what extent it can help or prevent the practice of an actual management that is committed to the demands from the society.
