The objetive of this academic work is to analyze and problematize a history of the Carnival of Recife in the period 1955-1964. At that time, organizing the reign of Momo became a political priority, for the administrators considered necessary to create public policies capable of solving a question that was a time of prominence in the newspapers of the city: to save the Carnival of Recife from the "decay". The 1950s is a milestone for historiography that analyzes the Carnival of Recife. Soon after the end of the celebrations of the 1955, the Municipality of the city, through the bill authored by the Alderman Antonio Batista de Sousa, tries to take to himself the organization of the party. According to some periodicals, the measure appears in the attempt to "save the reign of Momo", that according to the same, was "dying to the few". This way, in 1955, the mayor Djair Brindeiro sanctioned the law No. 3.346, of June 7, officializing the Carnival of the city, that happened to be organized by the Department of Documentation and Culture (DDC). This law had as its objective the promotion of tradition-oriented Carnival, thus preserving the clubs of frevo, maracatus and caboclinhos clubs. Among the measures proposed by law, financial assistance was provided to the blocks, samba schools and other Carnival associations that contributed to the animation and consolidation of the Recife Carnival. In this research we analyze the political and social disputes and the prohibitions to the practices considered subversive, that were common in the days of Momo. However, we also emphasize the resistance of the popular that equated to any kind of rule or prohibition.
