Responding to the growing gap between the sociological ethos & the world we study, the challenge of public sociology is to engage multiple publics in multiple ways. These public sociologies should ...not be left out in the cold, but brought into the framework of our discipline. In this way we make public sociology a visible & legitimate enterprise, &, thereby, invigorate the discipline as a whole. Accordingly, if we map out the division of sociological labor we discover antagonistic interdependence among four types of knowledge: professional, critical, policy, & public. In the best of all worlds the flourishing of each type of sociology is a condition for the flourishing of all, but they can just as easily assume pathological forms or become victims of exclusion & subordination. This field of power beckons us to explore the relations among the four types of sociology as they vary historically & nationally, & as they provide the template for divergent individual careers. Finally, comparing disciplines points to the umbilical chord that connects sociology to the world of publics, underlining sociology's particular investment in the defense of civil society, itself beleaguered by the encroachment of markets & states. 3 Tables, 92 References.

A consolidação de uma democracia e de um Estado de Direito passa pelo desenvolvimento de uma sociedade civil organizada, com forte atuação e autonomia em relação ao Estado, permitindo a construção de ...um ambiente favorável ao desenvolvimento de organizações da sociedade civil (OSC). O estudo busca identificar quais adaptações as OSCs precisam promover para estarem aderentes ao marco regulatório do terceiro setor (MROSC), e estarem elegíveis a transacionar com o poder público. Sob característica qualitativa, abordagem dedutiva e com emprego de levantamento em fontes secundárias, observou-se que quesitos que não partem da decisão da coletividade da OSC tolhem sua vontade e sua participação na tomada das decisões.

The relevance of the research topic is due to the denationalization of the social services market and, as a result, the growing importance of the third sector in their provision; the development of ...civil society, the construction of social problems, in the solution of which non- profit organizations play an important role. A comparative analysis of assessments of the emerging model of interaction between civil society and the state will allow us to determine its current state, show strengths and weaknesses, the most pressing problems and development trends. A large role in the study of the issues raised belongs to the study and critical understanding of the leading practices of building interaction between the state and civil society, which will not only adapt the most appropriate practices, but also avoid possible problems. The proposed research will help to establish feedback between the state, business and supported NPOs and develop recommendations for optimizing this interaction. The aim of the study is to comprehensively evaluate the effectiveness of the emerging model of interaction between the state and NPOs as new actors in the country’s economic and socio-cultural policy and forecast the prospects for its development. The study is based on the study of the perceptions of leaders and key actors of NPOs about the prospects for the development of their organizations in the context of the emerging model of interaction with business and the state. The authors put forward a hypothesis about the need to study the assessments of the existing model of interaction between the state and NPOs by representatives of executive authorities responsible for the implementation of relevant programs, direct managers and key actors of NPOs, as well as representatives of target groups of their activities in the regions to determine the problems and prospects of interaction between the state, business and NPOs.
