RESUMO

The purpose of my paper is to study the governance of the city of Sao Paulo between 1765 and 1802. This means that I will study the practices and devices of power that enabled the exercise of the command on the local populations. So, I will circumscribe my analysis around the institution that had the prerogatives of this action: the Municipal Council of São Paulo. The aim of my research, the captaincy of Sao Paulo in the second half of the century, allows to observe such question in a context of transformation, result of the reformist politics adopted by the Portuguese Empire in this context. So, I will be able to identify how this dynamic broader caused a major shift in how the government of the city was conducted.
