This thesis has as its central theme the socio-assistance surveillance in Brazil, presented from the analysis of its conformation and its basis in RS. Its purpose is to contribute to the qualification of the social assistance policy through the constitution of theoreticalmethodological, technical-operative and ethico-political subsidies. The critical dialectical method supports the realization of mixed-focus research, which was developed through a combination of documental analysis and semi-structured interviews. The research sample comprises 11 of the 34 municipalities of the RMPA, where actions related to the activity were identified between 2014 and 2017. It is based on the historical contextualization and characterization of the aspects that set the socio-assistance surveillance, problematizing theoretical and ethical-political assumptions that are being established since its inclusion as a social assistance activity. Then, it sought to unveil how the socio-welfare surveillance has been operating at the municipal level, addressing processes such as data collection, construction of indicators, use of technology associated with information management, planning, institutional relations, diagnosis, monitoring and evaluation. Data on the constitution of the technical teams, the qualification and qualification of the workers and their working conditions are presented. The reflections also cover the subjects who are demanding the actions of social assistance and the way in which their participation in the different spaces and processes, including those related to socio-assistance surveillance, has taken place or not. It is concluded that this function is permeated by an ethical-political dimension, which contribution will depend primarily on the social direction that is printed. By a bias closely connected with conservatism, it contributes to the perpetuation of the condition of subalternity of the workers and users of SUAS. Already, from a critical perspective, it adds the possibility of contributing to the democratization of social assistance and to the construction of emancipatory social processes. Yet in the same way that social direction is decisive, attention is drawn to the fact that it does not consolidate immediately or in isolation. It is necessary to consider the disputes and contradictions that make public social policies either a place of resignation and resistance. However, considering the delimitations of time and space of the research, the historical counterfacts found give indications that, despite the significant advances, the operationalization of socio-assistance surveillance little reflects the adoption of a more critical social direction perspective.
