This article analyzes the political results of the social movement in public policy, specifically the consequences of the Human Rights movement in the protection programs of the National Human Rights Policy. It is based on empirical research of two decades (1990 and 2000) of the Human Rights movement in Espírito Santo, through two national campaigns examined through documents and interviews with activists: Campaign Against Impunity and Corruption and Campaign Against Violations in the Prison System. It uses a correlational-processual approach to investigate the consequences of the social movement on public policy. The main argument is that the human rights movement has produced consequences for the formulation and implementation of public policy that are structural to the National Human Rights Policy. It argues that these results consist of a process of institutionalization of rights that configures institutional fits. In addition, it highlights the role of confrontational repertoires as a condition that favours political results and the mechanisms that operate in mobilization.
