Resumo: This papers focuses on the circuits along which information circulates within the sphere of a market taken as an exemplary institution of capitalist market relations: the stockmarket. Through ethnographic research, we have sought to identify the different contents this information can carry in the scope of the stockmarket, the configurations the information can assume and, particularly, the nature of the relations that shape the circuits and networks through which information circulates. The research led us to conclude that information is the main focus of competition among participants in the stockmarket. This is an eminently unequal type of competition, since what really counts here is not the content of what is being communicated, but the position each participant in the market holds in relation to the institutions and the networks through which the information circulates. Keywords: Organizations; economic sociology; finacial markets; informations networks.

Através de uma pesquisa etnográfica, buscou-se identificar os diversos conteúdos que as informações podem comportar no âmbito do mercado de ações, as configurações que elas podem assumir e, principalmente, a natureza das relações que conformam os circuitos e redes por onde as informações transitam. A pesquisa nos levou à constatação de que as informações são o objeto principal da concorrência entre os participantes do mercado acionário, uma concorrência eminentemente desigual, na medida em que, nela, o que conta realmente não é o conteúdo que está sendo transmitido, mas a posição em que os participantes do mercado se encontram em relação às instituições e às redes por onde as informações circulam.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)2005-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/article/view/193710.5007/%xPolítica & Sociedade; Vol. 4 No. 6 (2005); 133-164Política & Sociedade; Vol. 4 Núm. 6 (2005); 133-164Política & Sociedade; v. 4 n. 6 (2005); 133-1642175-79841677-4140reponame:Política & Sociedade (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/article/view/1937/1701Copyright (c) 2005 Política & Sociedadeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMüller, Lúcia Helena Alves2022-11-21T14:13:34Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/1937Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politicaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/politica/oai||ernesto.seidl@ufsc.br|| ps@cfh.ufsc.br2175-79841677-4140opendoar:2022-11-21T14:13:34Política & Sociedade (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
