This article intends to demarcate the foundations of the hegemonic educational project in Brazilian society at the end of the last century and its reflection on the educational policies of Gurupá, municipality of Pará. It investigates how, in counterpoint to the hegemonic model, the municipal government outlined counter-hegemonic possibilities of conceiving and executing its public policy in education. In addition to the analysis of semi-structured interviews conducted in Gurupá, we chose to demarcate a historical cut from the Federal Constitution of 1988, with documentary and bibliographic research. The analysis made in this article demonstrates the political importance of the municipalization process when conceived as a possibility to approach management priorities as an institutional response to the demands of civil society, especially from the grassroots, qualifying democratic and participatory relationships among the agents involved , respecting the legality of the norm and fundamentally installing another culture of management, unlike the hierarchical culture among the federative entities. In this sense, we conclude that, in Gurupá, the organization of local power relations is organized on the basis of a rationality of resistance, in which the process of popular education carried out from the basic ecclesial communities constitutes the basis for sustaining this dynamic, that opposes the hegemony in the region, based on clientelist and patrimonialist logics.

Keywords : Decentralization; Public Space; Municipal Education.
