Abstract

This work seeks to present an analysis of management and social control within the scope of the Social Assistance Policy (PAS) in the state of Sergipe. To this end, we have specific objectives to study the role of the Sergipe State Social Assistance Council (CEAS/SE), understand the dynamics of the National Social Assistance Policy to guarantee the population's participation in public management and examine the responsibilities of civil society in a Social Assistance Council for democratic management. When disagreeing on the topic, we sought to collect data on the topic, based on productions from course completion works (TCCs) and dissertations linked to undergraduate and postgraduate studies in Social Work at the Federal University of Sergipe. The method used to guide the studies and analyzes corresponded to historical-dialectical materialism, with the type of bibliographic and documentary research, expanded on primary and secondary sources, whose qualitative analysis contributed to a more consistent interpretation of the data. Given the above, it was possible to present the paths for the implementation and construction of the Social Assistance Policy in the country, the configuration of civil society and the creation of the Unified Social Assistance System (SUAS). Furthermore, the study disagreed on the panorama of the Social Assistance and Social Control Policy in the state of Sergipe, through the analysis of the management of PAS in the state, in the period from 2018 to 2022 and the role of CEAS/SE through the analysis documents relating to the activities carried out by this instance in the same period. Furthermore, the productions of the Department of Social Service and the Postgraduate Program, monographs and dissertations, with themes relevant to participation and social control of the Social Assistance Policy in the state of Sergipe, were collected and verified. Finally, final considerations are presented, pointing out the results obtained with this research and the expectations regarding this work in fulfilling its purpose of provoking greater understanding regarding the Social Assistance and Social Control Policy in the state of Sergipe and, with this, contributing to strengthening Social Control and, consequently, SUAS.
