This work is a study about two Mundurukú communities, Praia do Índio e Praia do Mangue. They are located in urban area in Itaituba – PA, Brazil. The contact between tribal and national societies, planted a lot of problems, prejudicing the social group’s own reproduction. However these groups making an effort to recreate their Mundurukú identity through Mundurukú language teaching in their Indians schools. This study was coming true during the Socials Science Master Program course of Universidade Federal do Pará, in Anthropology subject, from March 2006 to March 2008. The research was divided in two stages. The fist one consisted in researches in libraries, bookshops and internet about specific Anthropology texts. The second stage was fieldwork in Itaituba’s Indian communities. Two months were taking during the University breaking periods. However I stayed more four months before the Master Course start too. Twelve families representing 258 people were interviewed. The results of this research showed the Mundurukú traditional institutions can adapt themselves to the urban situation. A new social order was born due to the interaction and contact with national society. This new social order keeps traditional Mundurukú and national society features. In this urban context, despite of everything, we can see that the Mundurukú traditional institutions mainly keep marking their powers spaces that are still governed by kinship, by clans and by Mundurukú local leaderships ('cacicado').

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013-03-26) SOUSA, Walter Lopes de; SANTOS, Terezinha Fátima Andrade Monteiro dos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9502681594591950
This study examines the public-private partnership agreement between the City Hall of Santarém - PA and the Ayrton Senna Institute, who has implemented management programs in education in this city. Among these programs our study focus on the "Programa Gestão Nota 10" (PGN10), because we have interest to analyzing the changes that occurred in the Department of Education and their schools. To get this target we have developed a research when were reviewing papers about educational legislation, management reports, reports about educational organization, documents about the public-private partnership and also documents that was madding on it. We did field work during the search and we did 21 (twenty one) semi-structured interviews with teachers, council members of social control, educators, directors and coordinators who work in the educational sector of the city. All the information about search were treated using the Discourse Analysis, because it offers the possibility of apprehension speech in the forms of oral and written communication, however, as a tool it’s able to use for analysis of other media - as written in official documents of the partnership IAS-PMS. Because we understand that all communication that brings meanings can be translated by the techniques of Discourse Analysis, and we interpreted with the dialectical materialist method. This study not allowed classifying the occurrence of democratic management, as evidenced by the discussion in this text. Regarding the implementation of the management model, we realize that it cannot be completed because there are still elements of old traditional management in education, besides the model of "nucleation", where there is not even principal or director in many schools. This contributes to delays the successful implementation of managerial organization. We realized, besides introducing market concepts in public education, stimulating competition between classes and schools, this partnership also wok to feed these private sector with public money in exchange for the implementation of certain management techniques in the management education sector. Moreover, there is intensification upon the teacher’s work that happens to be blamed for the results to be achieved, which creates a situation where it is not allowed failure to meet these targets under the accusation of incompetence or even veiled under the warning to face some administrative measure. In this situation can appear a practice of "increasing height" of the indicators that do not always express the real situation. Finally, our study showed that this practice continuous delay the possibility of education for citizenship in schools, because there is a lot of space for increase a competitive spirit than space for developing critical knowledge of an environment capable of discovery. Our study and analysis shows that whole issue is masked by market ideology in the educational sector.
