Resumo: The present dissertation deals with the relation between psychological practices and social politics, in a more specific way, the relation between the know-how of Psychology and the field of Social Assistance. To this end it covers theoretical reflections about the knowledge produced in the practices experienced, viewing the widening and deepening of the debates concerning the interfaces between psychology and social public politics. To exploit this theme, context and processes of the insertion of psychology in the Social Assistance field in the last decade were focused, using two data sources: scientific production and narratives. Regarding scientific productions, we sought to understand the specificities of the produced knowledge on the processes of constitution of psychological practices in the field of social assistance in Brazilian theses and dissertations published between 2004 and 2010. Using a systematic review method, we observed a shortage of studies in this area and we also noted peculiarities concerning working conditions, professional consolidation of psychology in the field of social assistance, interlocution with other areas and the everyday challenges faced in this field. The second section had as objective to understand how the processes of articulation between the construction and psychological practices and social assistance took place. The study relied on the professional experiences of Psychology professionals who work or have worked in the field of social assistance in Porto Alegre since the 1990s. As a methodological strategy, the collection and analysis of narratives was used, have as referencial theoretician, the social constructionist. Among the results of this work, we highlight the mismatch between the training and professional performance, the contradiction between the need to promote strategies for the everyday and collective construction together with the understanding of this process as a barrier to the work and, finally, the idea that public politics of social assistance is poorly explored and poorly articulated to the other social politics. This work reinforces the relevance of intensifying the debate on the insertion of psychological practices in the field of Social Assistance, viewing the critical reflection and the transformation of conceptions, places and social projects for the profession
