MARTINS, Rafael D'Almeida  y  LOTTA, Gabriela Spanghero. Capital social e redes sociais como alternativa para análise de políticas públicas de educação: o caso de Icapuí-CE. Ensaio: aval. pol. públ. educ. [online]. 2010, vol.18, n.69, pp.843-860. ISSN 0104-4036.

This paper aims to analyze the process of implementation and universalization of the elementary education policy in the municipality of Icapuí-CE, based on the concepts of social capital and social networks. From these concepts, we studied the actions of the Secretary of Education as a case of successful public policy making through participatory management, democratic and decentralized, heavily based on social relationships between the community and the public who have been benefited by the existence of high levels of civic engagement and strong community ties arising during the process of political emancipation of the municipality. It shows that the socio-historical context and the social networks were sufficient to create and mobilize the social capital existing in the community and thus able to develop actions for social transformation.

Palabras clave : Social Capital; Social Networks; Municipal Policy of Education; Icapuí.
