Abstract

In the last decades, the theme of social participation in the area of Public Sports Policy has been gaining relevance in studies, research, technical and political reports and in the political and civic agenda of the country. With the Federal Constitution of 1988, the councils become in this scenario a new space, where State and society deliberate guidelines for the elaboration of public policies. Yet, there are still some obstacles that block the action of these mechanisms. The research proposes to analyze the Rio Grande do Norte State Sports Council, about your operation, your organization and the way in which the population participates in the Public Sports and Leisure Policies of the State of Rio Grande from north. The collegiate has all the normative structure, and its creation, is based on the State Law nº 7.133 of 01/13/1998. This work has the purpose to present the results of the research on the effectiveness and functioning of the Rio Grande do Norte State Sports Council, utilized as an arena for dialogue with society and is fulfilling its role in the advisory, normative and deliberative. As a Working Methodology, research is qualitative, using the inductive method, and can conclude from the theoretical research that, despite the existence of this space, there is no information about the functioning of the council, and if its actions are concretized as instances deliberative It is known that the legal and effective existence of the collegiate is a key piece for the construction of State Sports State Policy, which does not yet exist. There is a need to deepen research on how it works and how counselors receive the demands - whether there is social participation in the guidelines and decisions.
