Abstract

The subject of this thesis is the role played by the Institut of National Historic and Artistic Heritage (Iphan) in the development of public policies for the conservation of Brazilian cultural heritage during the administration of the minister Gilberto Gil\'s ahead the Ministry of Culture (MinC). Its goal is to investigate if the considerable broadening of Iphan\'s institutional activity corresponded to a greater share of responsibility with other groups involved in the conservation field and to social involvement of the various \"constituent groups of the Brazilian society\" as states the Federal Constitution of 1988. To do so, Iphan\'s role is analyzed under its institutional, social and conceptual aspects seeking three specific objectives. The first one is the definition of the Brazilian cultural heritage conservation field and the evaluation of its vertical and horizontal institutional impacts upon Iphan, caused by minister Gilberto Gil\'s cultural policies, by other agencies of the Federal Government, by state and municipal public authorities and by sectors of civil society. The second is the identification of social agents and their agencies for legitimizing, contesting or reassuring values in play in the conservation field, including social groups and communities that presented demands for or against the protection of cultural assets by Iphan and also the very public agents of that compose the institution\'s personnel. The third is the survey of the \"heritage supply\" generated by Iphan throughout Gil\'s administration of MinC, evaluating the extensions and limits of the policies implemented by the agency starting from heritage values, representations and roles produced by the institution\'s heritage engineering. This thesis is a result of a PhD research accomplished with the support of an agreement between São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) and Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), by means of a PhD scholarship (case n 2014/26158-2) and an overseas research residency scholarship (case n 2017/20853). The opinions, assumptions and conclusions expressed on this volume are the author\'s responsibility and not necessarily reflect FAPESP\'s perspective. (AU)
