摘要：This article seeks to describe the mechanisms which contributed to the election of Japanese-origin candidates in the state of São Paulo municipal elections between 1947 (when the first state and municipal elections take place since the beginning of the Estado Novo regime) and 1964 (when the democratic regime was interrupted). Data records from the Regional Electoral Court were collected in order to identify the candidates who occupied the chairs of Councilor, Mayor and Deputy-mayor. The relationship between candidacies and strategic relational resources from ethnic social spaces is also demonstrated. This case study was carried out in Bastos.
