Sumario:The concept of Affirmative Action in Brazil, nowadays, wins in the end strengthen the government of former president Fernando Henrique Cardoso (1994-2002) by putting into practice the precepts of international conventions and treaties, such as the World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance, in Durban, South Africa. The meeting pointed to the perversity of the system, a crime against humanity. Most countries in the Conference ratified agreements on the deployment of so-called affirmative action policies as a way to cover part of the legacy of forced labor that many economies have strengthened. Soon after the Conference, the Brazilian government implemented a Quota Program within some ministries (Agriculture Development and Agrarian Reform, Justice and Foreign Affairs), by way of social repair. The thesis work intends to show experiments in progress, like the city of Piracicaba, interior of São Paulo, in the implementation of the Law of Quotas of public service, subject to 20% of places to African descent, securing a 40% stake in official advertisements, and other laws and programs aimed at marginalized segments of society, like the blacks, under the application of so-called Affirmative Action.
