Abstract

The present study has as investigation purpose the Sport and Leisure Program of the City (PELC), organized by Development National Secretariat of the Sport and the Leisure (SNDEL), Sport Ministery, Federal Government. Criated in 2003, the PELC was produced by ME staff for its inclusion in the pluriyearly 2004-2007. In its proposal, it directs actions and activities that contemplate the recreative sport among others diligences inserted in the leisure macro conception. This program is been stablished as a public politics proposal and, therefore, analysis concerned about his effects has been justified. Our aim was to analyse the conceptions and comprehensions about the leisure that arises in the documents, in special the Basic Project, by means of which the Minas Gerais entities founded its adhesion into PELC in the year of 2007. Another complementary questions were lifted such as: (a) are the leisure conceptions of the convention manager in according to the PELC orientations?; (b) are the PELC directrixes the main focus and are followed in the discursive corpus by program managers and coordinaters?; (c) how the managers and coordinaters of the aproved basic projects remark sport and leisure after the program implantation? Respecting of theoretic-methodologic conjectures, we adopt the documental analysis of qualitative character. Thus, from the uses of the contents analysis technics (AC1), was procedured the requests’ studies of the Minas Gerais cities, aprouved both or implantation or replace in 2007. The research included 26 PELC basic projects and run under two aspects: documental analysis of aproved basic projects and analysis of interviews and responded qustionaries by projects responsers. About the results of the present investigation we can affirm that managers understand the PELC as a program with actions principally turned upon the recreative sport and neglect the other possibilities contemplated into the leisure such as the touristic, manual and artistics activities. Besides of this thought, they may request leisure while social right, with emancipatory and transforming character, that can positivly influence the comunities and individuals life. This understanding confirm itself in the projects that are running yet when the interviewers talking about changes requested in the localities where runs the PELC.
