| Abstract | |
The current research has as subject mapping the discussion about affirmative actions proposals toward black population in Brazil. Even tough incipient, that debate already raise a roll of controversies and brings questions about what are this actions, where they exist, what they propose and why. The generally information in the country brings the north american experience, today with almost 40 years, as main reference and identify the actions, basically, with the quotas system, like the case of some law projects that aim to improve the access of blacks to higher education. However, as this kind of politics are more widely argued and proposed, a detailed debate becomes necessary to define their limits and possibilities. Analysing the process of denunciation, recognition and, mainly, the forms of combating racism, is observed that the particularities of brazilians social, political, economical and racial reality are included in the formulation of affirmative actions that are assuming specific meanings.
