It aims therefore understand its development , its nature, its forms and transformations undergone by them as well as their causes and consequences for the organization and the employees involved in them. For the fulfillment of these proposal I used interviews with Ação Popular militants and made some reflections about oral sources, memory and history. These research enabled us to understad, among other things, that the strategies of Ação Popular to approach the working class became a result of the dialectical conflict caught with the state, specially after the 1964 civil-military coup.
