O Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) vem sofrendo medidas governamentais que dificultam sua implementação como, por exemplo, seu desfinanciamento. Consideramos a participação e o controle social como uma força na luta pela melhoria e manutenção da saúde como direito de todos e dever do estado. Um dos espaços legitimados da participação e do controle social são os Conselhos Locais de Saúde (CLS), que visam atender as demandas e necessidades de saúde da população que reside na área de abrangência das unidades básicas de saúde. Para os trabalhadores de saúde, em especial o profissional enfermeiro, que tem ocupado espaços de gerência, é importante seu conhecimento sobre esta temática, para a defesa do SUS. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa descritiva-exploratória, que utilizou alguns conceitos da análise institucional, linha sócio analítica, tais como: instituição, instituinte e processo de institucionalização. Teve por objetivo geral analisar os modos de funcionamento dos CLS em um município do estado de São Paulo sob a ótica do referencial teórico; e como objetivos específicos caracterizar os CLS em relação ao perfil dos participantes e duração das reuniões, bem como analisar se os achados em pesquisa realizada nas escolas francesas iluminam o modo de funcionamento dos CLS. Foram selecionados dois CLS, por meio dos critérios de inclusão e foram eles os dois mais antigos, com reuniões mensais e em vigor durante a produção dos dados. Para essa produção foram utilizadas a observação nas reuniões e atividades dos CLS, contato com as atas e entrevistas com questões semiestruturadas, afim de identificar os modos de funcionamento dos CLS. Foram entrevistados 28 participantes, dentre eles, 24 membros do CLS e 4 informantes-chave; as entrevistas foram gravadas em mídia digital e posteriormente transcritas na íntegra. Foi utilizado registro de impressões, sentimentos e expectativas no diário de pesquisa. Os dados foram organizados pelas proposições de Paille e Mucchielli, seguindo as etapas interrelacionadas: transcrição, transposição e reconstituição. O material foi analisado confrontando os objetivos e o referencial teórico. Os resultados foram apresentados em categorias e subcategorias, sendo elas: I- Os Conselhos Locais de Saúde: composição, atividades realizadas e livros-ata; II - Relações no conselho, como subcategorias à relação do conselheiro com a função, a visão dos conselheiros e gerentes, representar e ser representado, e a relação entre gestores e conselheiros; e III - Controle Social explícito e implícito. Os CLS surgiram com um movimento instituinte e ao serem institucionalizados conjugam os modos instituídos de participação como a hierarquização e os jogos de interesse. Concluímos que os CLS funcionam na perspectiva mais de satisfazer os projetos individuais aos coletivos, há valorização de sua permanência para benefício da unidade de saúde, do gerente e para atender aos requisitos de avaliação do Programa Nacional de Melhoria do Acesso e da Qualidade. Foi observada a materialização das relações hierárquicas presente na sociedade brasileira e que reproduzem relações históricas servindo a interesses restritos. A pesquisa na França ilumina os achados nos CLS brasileiro com a questão da proximidade sociocultural entre os gerentes, trabalhadores e os conselheiros / Some governmental measures, such as underfunding, have made it harder to implement the Unified Health System (UHS). However, social participation and control are powerful weapons in the fight for a better public healthcare and its maintenance as a right to every citizen and a duty of the State. The Local Health Councils (LHC) are one of the legal places for social participation and control that seeks to attend the demands and health needs of the population residing in the area of coverage of the basic health units. Health professionals, especially nurse practitioners, who occupy management positions, must have an understanding of these organizations in order to defend SUS. The present study is a qualitative and descriptive exploratory research that used some concepts of institutional analysis, socio-analytic line, and institutionalization process. The general purpose of this study was to analyze the modes of operation of the LHC in a city of the State of São Paulo under the perspective of the theoretical reference. The specific objectives was to characterize the LHC (concerning the profile of the participants and duration of the meetings) as well as to analyze if findings of researches carried out in French schools would help to understand the way that the LHC works. Two LHC were selected using the inclusion criteria: the oldest with monthly meetings during the production of the data. Data were collected by the observation of meetings and activities of the LHC, evaluation of documents and interviews with semi-structured questions, in order to identify the modes of operation of the LHC. 28 participants were interviewed, including 24 LHC members and 4 key informants. The interviews were recorded on digital media and later completely transcribed. Impressions, feelings and expectations were registered and used in the research diary. The data were organized by the propositions of Paille and Mucchielli, following the interrelated stages: transcription, transposition and reconstitution. The material was analyzed confronting the objectives and the theoretical reference. The results were presented in categories and subcategories, as follows: I- The Local Health Councils: composition, activities and documents; II - Relationships in the council, as subcategories the relationship of the advisor with the function, the vision of the advisors and managers, to represent and be represented, and the relationship between managers and advisors; and III - Explicit and implicit Social Control. The LHC emerged as an institutional movement and when they were institutionalized, they combine some modes of participation like hierarchy and games of interest. It was found that the CLS works more in the perspective of individual projects than collective projects. There is an interest of its permanence to benefit the health unit, the advisor and to meet the evaluation requirements of the National Program for Improving Access and Quality. It was also observed the materialization of hierarchical relations present in Brazilian society that reproduce a historical relation of serving personal interests. The research made in French schools helps to understand the Brazilian LHC concerning sociocultural proximity between managers, workers and advisors

He presented the following objectives: analyses the Brazilian National Health System´s users and popular organizations participation into Local Health Counsels in Camaçari – Bahia, know the creation‟s history of the Local Health Counsels - LHC, analyses the permanent education process of the Health Counsels, identify the major actions and challenges involved in formation of the LHC in Camaçari, reflected about the pedagogic process involved in relationship among social movements, health workers and health directors in creation´s process of local popular participation. It is a quantitative and qualitative study that uses the Epinfo. 6.04 program into treatment of quantitative data and research material analyses to interpretation of the qualitative results. It was done the analysis of information from forty-five (45) counsels with questionnaires and interviewed sixteen persons into four (4) researched territories witch have the LHC. Results are presented from the LHS and Citizen Participation: on the political and pedagogical. Showed that the first experiments date back to 1983 in the suburbs of the city, then strengthened and expanded from 2005, making from the Health Policy of the Municipality. The profile we saw that the majority of the directors representing the communities (users), especially with the presence of women, adults and seniors, with enrollment of high school. Many of those involved with social movements in the neighborhood or the city of Camaçari. In all LHC had elections, especially users, but the vast majority had no training. The main possibilities of these spaces show up as a channel in the construction of power decentralization to community empowerment, and health workers, with effective monitoring of local actions, but an incipient construction of a new citizenship when dialogued with the paternalistic culture while the challenges are highlighted, as offering minimal infrastructure necessary for the functioning of LHS, the organization of a permanent education policies, health councilors, especially articulated with the Municipal Health Council, focusing on training and emphasis of education policy People, strengthen the coordination of local health counselors with local social movements and lastly, joint and strengthen the support of the Camaçari‟s Municipal Secreriat of Health and Municipal Health Counsels of Local Health Counsels, especially in the process of community mobilization and structuring LHS. / RESUMO O presente estudo trata da participação popular, através do envolvimento dos usuários nos Conselhos Locais de Saúde (CLS) no município de Camaçari- Bahia. Apresentou como objetivos: analisar a participação dos usuários e das organizações populares em Conselhos Locais de Saúde de Camaçari- BA; conhecer o histórico do movimento de formação dos Conselhos Locais de Saúde; analisar os espaços de educação permanente dos conselheiros; identificar as principais ações e desafios na construção do CLS em Camaçari e; refletir sobre os processos pedagógicos envolvidos no diálogo entre os atores dos movimentos sociais, trabalhadores e gestores na construção da participação popular local. Tratou-se de uma pesquisa quantiqualitativa que utilizou do programa Epinfo. 6.04 no tratamento dos dados quantitativos e análise de conteúdo na interpretação dos resultados qualitativos. Foi levantado o perfil de 45 conselheiros, através de questionário, e entrevistados 16 pessoas nos 4 territórios pesquisados aonde têm os conselhos locais de saúde. Os resultados foram apresentados a partir do CLS e da Participação Cidadão na dimensão política e pedagógica. Mostraram que as primeiras experiências datam de 1983 nos bairros periféricos da cidade, depois fortalecidos e ampliados a partir de 2005, fazendo parte da Política de Saúde do Município. Quanto ao perfil, a maioria dos conselheiros representam as comunidades (usuários), com a presença principalmente de mulheres, adultos e idosos, apresentando escolarização de ensino médio, muitos destes envolvidos com movimentos sociais do bairro ou da cidade de Camaçari. Em todos os CLS tiveram eleições, especialmente dos usuários, mas a grande maioria não teve capacitação. As principais possibilidades destes espaços mostram-se como canal na construção da descentralização poder com o empoderamento comunitário, bem como dos trabalhadores de saúde, com efetivo acompanhamento das ações locais, mas uma incipiente para construção de uma nova cidadania, quando dialogada com a cultura paternalista. Os desafios apontados foram a infraestrutura mínima necessária para o funcionamento dos CLS; a organização de uma Política de Educação Permanente dos conselheiros de saúde, especialmente articulada com o Conselho Municipal de Saúde, com foco na formação política e ênfase da educação popular; o fortalecimento da articulação dos conselheiros locais de saúde com os movimentos sociais locais e; o fortalecimento do apoio da Secretaria de Saúde Municipal e Conselho Municipal de Saúde aos Conselhos Locais de Saúde, especialmente no processo de mobilização comunitária e estruturação dos CLS.

À l’ère de la mondialisation institutionnelle des sociétés modernes, alors que la confluence d’une myriade d’influences à la fois micro et macro-contextuelles complexifient le panorama sociopolitique international, l’intégration de l’idéal participatif par les processus de démocratisation de la santé publique acquiert l’apparence d’une stratégie organisationnelle promouvant la cohésion des multiples initiatives qui se tissent simultanément aux échelles locale et globale. L’actualisation constante des savoirs contemporains par les divers secteurs sociétaux ainsi que la perception sociale de différents risques conduisent à la prise de conscience des limites de la compétence technique des systèmes experts associés au domaine de la santé et des services sociaux. La santé publique, une des responsables légitimes de la gestion des risques modernes à l’échelle internationale, fait la promotion de la création d’espaces participatifs permettant l’interaction mutuelle d’acteurs intersectoriels et de savoirs multiples constamment modifiables. Il s’agit là d’une stratégie de relocalisation institutionnelle de l’action collective afin de rétablir la confiance envers la fiabilité des représentants de la santé publique internationale, qui ne répondent que partiellement aux besoins actuels de la sécurité populationnelle. Dans ce contexte, les conseils locaux de santé (CLS), mis en place à l’échelle internationale dans le cadre des politiques régionales de décentralisation des soins de santé primaires (SSP), représentent ainsi des espaces participatifs intéressants qui renferment dans leur fonctionnement tout un univers de forces de tension paradoxales. Ils nous permettent d’examiner la relation de caractère réciproque existant entre, d’une part, une approche plus empirique par l’analyse en profondeur des pratiques participatives (PP) plus spécifiques et, d’autre part, une compréhension conceptuelle de la mondialisation institutionnelle qui définit les tendances expansionnistes très générales des sociétés contemporaines. À l’aide du modèle de la transition organisationnelle (MTO), nous considérons que les PP intégrées à la gouverne des CLS sont potentiellement porteuses de changement organisationnel, dans le sens où elles sont la condition et la conséquence de nombreuses traductions stratégiques et systémiques essentiellement transformatrices. Or, pour qu’une telle transformation puisse s’accomplir, il est nécessaire de développer les compétences participatives pertinentes, ce qui confère au phénomène participatif la connotation d’apprentissage organisationnel de nouvelles formes d’action et d’intervention collectives. Notre modèle conceptuel semble fournir un ensemble de considérations épistémosociales fort intéressantes et très prometteuses permettant d’examiner en profondeur les dimensions nécessaires d’un renouvellement organisationnel de la participation dans le champ complexe de la santé publique internationale. Il permet de concevoir les interventions complexes comme des réseaux épistémiques de pratiques participatives (RÉPP) rassemblant des acteurs très diversifiés qui s’organisent autour d’un processus de conceptualisation transculturelle de connaissances ainsi que d’opérationnalisation intersectorielle des actions, et ce, par un ensemble de mécanismes d’instrumentalisation organisationnelle de l’apprentissage. De cette façon, le MTO ainsi que la notion de RÉPP permettent de mieux comprendre la création de passages incessants entre l’intégration locale des PP dans la gouverne des interventions complexes de la santé et des services sociaux – tels que les CLS –, et les processus plus larges de réorganisation démocratique de la santé publique dans le contexte global de la mondialisation institutionnelle. Cela pourrait certainement nous aider à construire collectivement l’expression réflexive et manifeste des valeurs démocratiques proposées dans la Déclaration d’Alma-Ata, publiée en 1978, lors de la première Conférence internationale sur les SSP. / In an age of the institutional globalization of modern societies, the confluence of a myriad of micro- and macro-contextual factors complicates the international socio-political arena. In this context, the integration of participatory values through the democratization processes of Public Health takes on the appearance of an organizational strategy promoting cohesion among a multitude of local and global initiatives. The constant renewal of intersectoral knowledge and the social perception of risk suggest an increased social awareness regarding the limits of technical competence of social and healthcare Systems. As a legitimate international actor in the management of modern health risks, Public Health creates participatory spaces that enable interaction of intersectoral actors and constantly changing and dynamic knowledge. It is indeed a strategy of the institutional “relocalisation” of collective action, aiming to restore trust in the level of reliability of international Public Health representatives who only partially meet the current needs of population security. In this context, Local Health Councils (LHC), implemented internationally as part of decentralized Primary Health Care (PHC) regional policies, represent participative spaces that involve countless paradoxical forces of tension. The LHC provides both an opportunity to examine the reciprocal relationship between an in-depth empirical analysis of specific participatory practices (PP), as well as a conceptual comprehension of the institutional globalization defining the general expansionist tendencies of modern societies. Using the organizational transition model (OTM), we postulate that the integration of PP into LHC governance is potentially associated with organizational change in creating both the conditions and the consequences of numerous strategic and systemic translations, which are essentially transformative. However, in order for this transformation to occur, relevant participative skills need to be developed. Consequently, this participative phenomenon takes on the shape of an organizational learning process allowing new forms of collective action and intervention to be accomplished. Our conceptual model offers a set of interesting and promising “epistemosocial” considerations for an in-depth examination of the dimensions essential for an organizational renewal of participation in the complex field of Global Health. Through the OTM, we conceive complex interventions as epistemic networks of participative practices (ENPP) composed of a wide range of actors organized around a double process of transcultural conceptualization of knowledge and inter-sector operationalization of action. This process is possible through a set of mechanisms of organizational instrumentation of learning. In this way, the OTM and the concept of ENPP allow for a better understanding of the unceasing transition between the local integration of PP in the governance of complex interventions in the field of health and social services – such as LCH – and the broader processes of democratic reorganization of Public Health in a global context of institutional globalization. This could certainly help us to collectively construct a reflexive and manifest expression of democratic values proposed in Alma-Ata Declaration published in 1978 during the first International Conference on PHC.

Os direitos humanos ao desenvolvimento e à saúde estão intimamente ligados, uma vez que não há processo de desenvolvimento sem a consolidação da saúde. Ainda, pode-se observar a influência do nível de desenvolvimento na saúde, por meio da incidência de doenças que tende a ser maior em regiões menos desenvolvidas. Esta pesquisa qualitativa centrou-se no questionamento sobre as conexões entre o exercício do direito à saúde e o desenvolvimento no município de Ribeirão Preto, enfocando o controle social, no âmbito do Conselho Municipal de Saúde. Apresenta, portanto, como objetivo geral descrever as interrelações entre o controle social desempenhado pelo Conselho Municipal de Saúde de Ribeirão Preto e o desenvolvimento local. Os dados foram obtidos por meio de triangulação de fontes de dados, através da análise documental das atas das reuniões do Conselho, da observação passiva nas reuniões e de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com os conselheiros. As entrevistas foram analisadas por meio das análises de conteúdo e temática. Os entrevistados revelaram que apesar do reconhecimento da população sobre a saúde como um direito, há baixa participação popular no Conselho. Dentre os fatores determinantes da baixa participação estão a falta de conhecimento e informação e a baixa divulgação das ações do Conselho. Ainda assim, foram observadas melhorias na saúde por meio da atuação do Conselho e os membros reconheceram a importância dessa atividade para o desenvolvimento do município e aumento da qualidade de vida da população. Os participantes do estudo admitiram, porém, que o exercício do controle social necessita de muitos avanços para chegar perto do considerado ideal, o que depende da atuação dos próprios conselheiros, visando melhorar a sua representatividade. Constatou-se que, embora o Conselho Municipal de Saúde de Ribeirão Preto seja reconhecido pelos conselheiros como um espaço de democratização que funciona, a institucionalização de espaços participativos não garante a participação popular e o controle social em saúde. Nesse sentido, este trabalho apresentou alternativas para a construção deste processo, como a maior disseminação de informações, a elaboração de um canal de comunicação com a população, alterações no regimento interno e a capacitação permanente dos conselheiros, como elementos essenciais para a busca de outros caminhos para o exercício efetivo do controle social e a garantia do direito à saúde e desenvolvimento local do município de Ribeirão Preto. / The rights for the development and health are closely related since there is no development process without consolidation of health. Furthermore, one can observe the influence of the level of development of health, by disease incidence tends to be higher in less developed regions. This qualitative study focused on questions about the connections between the exercise of the right to health and development in the municipality of Ribeirão Preto, focusing on social control, under the Municipal Health Council presents, so as a general objective describing the interrelationships between social control played by the Municipal Council of Health of the development site. Data were obtained through triangulation of data sources, through documentary analysis of the minutes of Board meetings, meetings of passive observation and semi-structured interviews with counselors. The interviews were analyzed through content analysis and thematic. Respondents revealed that despite the recognition of population health as a right, there is low public participation in the Council. Among the determinants of low participation are lack of knowledge and information dissemination and low shares of the Council. Still, we observed improvements in health through the work of the Council and members recognized the importance of this activity for the development of the municipality and increased quality of life. Study participants admitted, however, that the exercise of social control requires many advancements to come close to the considered ideal, which depends on the performance of the councilors themselves, to improve its representativeness. It was found that, although the Board of Health of Ribeirão Preto is recognized by the board as a space that works for democratization, institutionalization of participatory spaces not guarantee popular participation and social control in health. Accordingly, this work presents alternatives for the construction of this process, as the greatest dissemination of information, the development of a communication channel with the population, changes in the bylaws and the permanent training of counselors, as essential to the pursuit of other paths for the effective exercise of social control and guarantee the right to health and development site in the city of Ribeirão Preto.
