And, this makes with that the development of the profession in this politics presents stability/instability movements. The inquiry involved referring metodologics procedures to the bibliographical research, the documentary one and the exploratory empirical research. This was carried through because, for the analysis of the study object, the inquiry of the dynamics of practical concrete professionals in the scope of the providence politics was necessary. For this, we carry through interviews opened in two social assistants who had had intense performance in the Social Service in the Providence in Alagoas, with the objective to rescue the beginning of the practical professional in the State of Alagoas, besides searching answers for gaps and questionings that had appeared in elapsing of the inquiry process. The choice of the universe of the providence politics is supported in its ample meaning as the nucleus of the public politics on which the possibilities of a State of Well-being in Brazil had been constructed. The development of the inquiry made it possible for us to understand the relation between the social politics specifically, the providence politics, and the Social Service in the context of the capitalist society not as something isolate more articulated to the social relations that crossed the society in its totality, contributing for the viability of practical that they are inserted in the forms of confrontation of the manifestations of the social matter.
