Resumo: This dissertation aims to study the constitution of collective identities around the experience of the Parade of LGBT Pride organization.. This experience reveals some transformative processes which have implicated the formation of political alternatives especially when this formation implies the equivalence of rights and the citizenship for gays, lesbians, bisexual, transsexual and transgender. We discuss the specificity of this experience in the city of Belo Horizonte, trying to understand the LGBT movement that is action from the civil society to the political-institutional spaces, without losing its political contents. We make an analysis of the history of militancy LGBT in Belo Horizonte, observing the passage for injustice feelings to consciousness of the social rights and the formation of political boundaries in the context of an emerging GLBT community as a political actor, as well as the collective practices of this social actor. Parallel, we look for to recognize the contingencies and strategies which have been structured in this political scenery. This research points out the diversity in this social movement, as well as the contradictions and conflicts among those actors whom constitute the LGBT community. For such, we use different qualitative methodologies, such as interviews (individual and collective), participant observation and documental analysis, as strategy of reconstruction of speeches and practices that were, and they are still, constantly hidden on the hegemonic status. Our results points out the importance of the empowerment of LGBT social movements for the democratization of public sphere. We also consider the importance to analyses the heterogeneity of this political actor on the construction of collective action and the relevance of the State and Civil Society actions to understand the LGBT social movements in the contemporary society.
