Abstract

This master's thesis is the result of research conducted with nuns in Piratini, Rio Grande do Sul. In the city two religious of the Catholic Church run six social projects aiming to help people who are in social and economic fragility. Through the route taken on the Catholic Church and the duties of the nuns within this religious institution we seek evidence and conform the dynamics of these actions. In this way, through the research it will be possible to point out the importance of ethnography to account for the different settings in which social actors are part of today without reducing them to a theoretical discourse.
