POLÍTICA NACIONAL DE ASSISTÊNCIA SOCIAL E CONSERVADORISMO: da concepção ao risco do desmonte

Abstract

This article analyzes the aspects of the National Social Assistance Policy, whi- ch expresses its connection with the conservation of bourgeois sociability. In this work, two moments of the National Assistance Policy were demarcated. The first one, within the framework of its conception, although based on a sin- gle, decentralized and participatory system, identifies that the concept of social protection is linked to a pattern of combating poverty by capacity development, with centrality in the family. The second identifies continuities, expressed by the conception of the Happy Child Program, but also new aspects that put at risk, the Unified Social Assistance System itself.
