SOCIEDADE, CULTURA E LEI ROUANET: UM ESTUDO DE CASO NA CIDADE DE PONTA GROSSA (PR)

Abstract

Every nation has its own culture, historically and materially determined, which is expressed by different values, structures, individuals and own symbols. Given these peculiarities, blunts the need for instruments to ensure the preservation of each nation-state culture. The State has the responsibility to provide mechanisms and tools that enforce the protection of culture. In contrast, in a state that follows the liberal ideology, companies are obtainers constantly pursuing profit and therefore any investments that do not relate to the market demands are, ready, discarded. Outcrop is so, conflicts of interest between private companies and the collective interest that is to direct resources to the culture ends up being seen exclusively as an expense and not as an investment. Seeking a break from the predecessor military regime implemented in Brazil, the 1988 Federal Constitution (CF / 88) established a list of rights and guarantees to individuals and built the culture as a constitutional guarantee. In the early 90s, emerges the Rouanet Law, a cultural policy model partnership of private companies that search through tax incentives to foster investment in the cultural sector of the country. Through the Rouanet Law, companies started to act as enablers of cultural projects, along with the state. Thus arises a biased partnership of the pubic entity with the private sector, which through the normative text camouflages the existing class struggle also in culture. More than that, through powerful institutions like democracy, is part of an extremely competent speech, legitimized by occult powers that hegemonize vision of contemporary capitalist world. From these assumptions, the research has the heart reflect the effectiveness of the Rouanet Law in the country's culture as well as scoring his mishaps in the city of Ponta Grossa - PR.
