The consolidation of democracy and the strengthenin g of institutions in our country, together with the persistence of patrimonialism and the patronage in relations between civil society and the Brazilian state, are emerging the need of establishing a democratic culture in which citizenspermanently follow the main actions of governments and public managers. Social control over the government appears to be very important to the governments be responsive and move to pursue the public interest. The elections, as a mechanism of accountability, are insufficient to ensure that the governments implement with efficacy, efficiency and effectiveness the policies that the society requires. This research sought to answer how can the Court of Auditors of the state of Rio de Janeiro (TCE-RJ), organ of external control, encourage and stimulate the social control exercised over the managers of organs under its jurisdiction. For this, this study used a field survey in other Courts of Auditors with the objective of pointing out possible actions that the TCE-RJ can implement in order to induce citizenship and increase social control. It was verified that the TCE-RJ can have, in fact, an effective action in the stimulaton to the state of Rio de Janeiro ́s society aiming the increment of the control of the actions and politics implemented for the public managers. The study suggests a set of fourteen measures that can be taken by TCE-RJ with this objective.
