Resumo: Abstract Acknowledging the existence of different perspectives about how to study public policies, this paper proposes a theoretical-methodological approach based on: Alvesson and Kärreman´s notion on social science inquiry as constructing mysteries based on empirical matters; Spink´s concept of "theme-field"; and, most of all, the gathering and studying of narratives, according to Czarniawska´s work. The case study chosen to explore this approach is the elaboration process of the Program for Revitalization and Development of the city of Santos´ Central Historical Region, also known as Cheer Up Centre. We suggest that the narrative studies shows itself capable of acknowledging the complexity of the theme-field and, in that sense, of the public policies that are object of our studies, enlightening and mapping research questions in dialogue with actors that are related to them in everyday life. Keywords: Public policy, narratives, public, historic centres, revitalization.

Reconhecendo a existência de diferentes perspectivas sobre como conduzir estudos sobre políticas públicas, este artigo traz como proposta abordagem teórico-metodológica cujas bases são: a noção de Alvesson e Kärreman de pesquisa social como construção de enredos de suspense tendo o objeto empírico como disparador; o conceito de Spink de campo-tema; e, principalmente, o levantamento e estudo das narrativas conforme indicado por Czarniawska. O caso escolhido para explorar essa abordagem é o processo de elaboração do Programa de Revitalização e Desenvolvimento da Região Central Histórica de Santos, também conhecido como programa Alegra Centro. Sugere-se que o instrumento de estudo de narrativas demonstra-se capaz de reconhecer a complexidade do campo-tema e, nesse sentido, das políticas públicas que são objeto de nossos estudos, lançando luz e mapeando questões de pesquisa em diálogo com os atores que com elas se relacionam no cotidiano.Palavras-chave: Políticas públicas, narrativas, público, centros históricos, revitalizaçãoAbstractAcknowledging the existence of different perspectives about how to study public policies, this paper proposes a theoretical-methodological approach based on: Alvesson and Kärreman ́s notion on social science inquiry as constructing mysteries based on empirical matters; Spink ́s concept of "theme-field"; and, most of all, the gathering and studying of narratives, according to Czarniawska ́s work.
