摘要:The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of social networks in three land reform settlement projects of the National Land Credit Program in Unaí/MG in the collective management process. The research integrated quantitative and descriptive approaches and as a tool for data collection, it was used questionnaires to holders of lots in order to map, analyze and compare the networks of influence, information and cooperation/mutual assistance. Among the main results, it was found that the networks of cooperation/mutual are proved to be the most cohesive, information networks are presented as the most fragmented and influence networks appeared in an intermediate position. When comparing the mapped social networks, it was not found many discrepancies between them. It was concluded that social networks seem to influence, to some extent, the collective action lawsuits since relational opportunities are created among its actors.
