El deporte y el fútbol en la formación social del brasile？o

this paper aims to map the codes of behaviors and manners in social relations and in the recent changes in sport organization in brazil. ideological, social, cultural, political and economic dimensions are given relevance here as a methodology in that they organize statements. in bibliographical sources interpreting sociologic discourses and in the outline of brazilian society development and evolution we observe several characteristics pertaining to self-restraint and emotion control through sport. in the economic sphere, we evidence an explanation of social changes resulting from brazil's late development process. however, drawing from the empirical theory, preliminary results show the recent sociocultural phenomenon of soccer as a factor to be considered in the formation of brazilian social behavior.
