The objective of this dissertation is to study the social capital stock of the Teofilo Otoni local gems arrangement, located in the Mucuri Valeey in the State of Minas Gerais. With this purpose, it uses a methodology that can estimate a social capital index for the local productive arragement. It is well known that the success of diferent actions, programs and policies implemented by public and private agents are strongly related to the existing stock of social capital of a region were the local arrangement is located, in the same way as the search for a government framework to be developed in a local productive arrangement must take in to account variables that affect the social capital index. This was emphasized because in the literature there are those who believe in the possibility of increasing social capital stock, while others with a deterministic view do not, justifying it with eventual historical roots explanations. The study concludes thal several actions focusing mainly on region necessities could increase its social capital index, creating the necessary conditions for economic development and therefore reducing possible distorcions generated by public policies and market failures in the local productive arrangement.
