Resumo: The present study analyzes the democracy in a dependent and oligarchic state, with peripheral social formation, Maranhão. The perspective is how to think of a better future for a state that has a socially low diversified society, cleaved by great inequalities, ethnically and racially asymmetric, whose democracy is fundamentally featured by oligarchic relations, family-based political culture, kinship and patrimonialism, by means of authoritarian practices. More than a thesis, it is a challenge to understand the imbrication of oligarchy and familybased political culture and kinship related to the idea of political elite.This study was motivated by the evidence that the existing literature does not focus on how those categories influence or not a democracy on a higher level in the state.Therefore, the research scope was limited for the contemporary period, the twenty-first century, and in Maranhão, and a the central question was set up: can the presence of families with a history of practices that can be characterized as oligarchic in the state of Maranhão have an essential role in the formation and configuration of current democracy? The research has a general objective, which is to investigate democracy and its overlap with oligarchic model, from 2002 to 2016. Specific objectives are: a) to carry out a brief update on the political trajectory of José Sarney as the leader of his political group in Maranhão; b) to describe how the contradiction of the Lula- Sarney alliance for the coalition pact for governability was forged and consolidated, starting in 2002; c) to investigate the source of strength and longevity for the maintenance of Sarney´s and his family´s power for so long in politics
