Item Políticas públicas e cidadania: uma análise da construção do orçamento participativo por intermédio das Associações da Cidade de Alagoinhas – Bahia(Universidade Católica do Salvador, 2015-06-30) Castro, Carlos Mauricio; Bortoli, Mari Aparecida; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3344778997789087; Lepikson, Maria de Fátima Pessôa; Silva, Julie Sarah Lourau Alves da; Delgado, Josimara AparecidaThis paper aims to analyze the influence of Alagoinhas’s residents’ association in the process of formation and consolidation of the municipal government budget, whose main focal point is the participatory budgeting (PB) that is a democratic process in which community members directly decide how to spend part of a public budget. In this process, residents can help to decide how to spend public funds on community improvements, such as parks, squares, streets, etc. PB allows the residents to participate in the municipal government budget decision-making and to develop public policies and citizenship in the process of public budget. In order to obtain information to this work, a lot of official documents were analyzed, such as neighborhood assemblies’ minutes and some documents of the city’s PB. As a result, it could be seen that many of the residents’ claims have been attended by PB.
