Resumen
This research investigates the networks and intricacy of public / private relationship which consisted on the implementation of the Federal Institute of corresponded to the process of "federalization" of the Catholic University Center of southwest Paraná - UNICS. The research is epistemologically based on the dialectical and historical materialism method, primary sources (laws, documents and others) methodologically consulted, interviews with the ones directly involved in the studied process, and literature findings in classical works, books, journal articles, among other materials. It was first pointed out the scenario of higher education in the FHC and Lula governments, and in particular, the numerical expansion of institutions, mostly private ones. Then it was discussed the historical development of Palmas and the Catholic Church in this context. Later, the historicity of higher education in Palmas and the implementation process of the Federal Institute (FI). It was found that the implementation of higher education in Palmas, gestated by the Catholic Church in the 1960s and maintained by the Education and Assistance Center Dom Carlos (CPEA), marked by the educational policies of the military government, faced financial problems in the course of history, this way taking its managers and sponsor to resort to the State for money in order to help keep the educational activities. In early 2000s, the financial crisis worsened, causing a decrease in the number of students. In this sense, there was a movement led by CPEA / UNICS, supported by politicians from the executive and legislative branches, traders/ businessmen, led by the friendship between Emeritus Bishop of Diocese of Palmas-Francisco Beltrão, Dom Agostinho Jose Sartori and the governor of Parana, Roberto Requião for the "federalization" of UNICS. This process was possible due to the union of the three spheres: federal, state and private. The State of Paraná held expropriation of the physical structure, indemnifying the sponsor , and transferring to the Federal Government for the implementation of a campus FI – For this to happen, the patrimonial relationships and personal affinities were very important, showing that in Brazil the distinction between public and private has not exceeded yet, in this case, making them even more confusing. The study also showed that the "federalization" was not a State public policy project to meet social demands and needs of the working class for free and public education. It was a project devised by the Catholic Church having CPEA as a representative making use of the state to avoid its bankruptcy. It was literally “the art of bouncing back from a hard time.
