Este ensaio discute as noções de trabalho informal, redes sociais e capital social na busca pela proposição de uma reflexão para o que se denomina de redes socioprodutivas, tendo como campo empírico as feiras do Centro de Fortaleza. Para marcar os aspectos da informalidade e as características das redes que sustentam esse tipo de atividade, foi realizada uma entrevista em profundidade com um produtor/feirante. Também se incluíram observações in loco e pesquisa bibliográficodocumental, que auxiliaram na contextualização histórica das feiras e na descrição da informalidade em Fortaleza, tendo como fontes matérias de jornais e dados dos órgãos oficiais do Governo. Nas considerações finais, mostra-se que o estudo das feiras, com suporte nesse ponto de vista, pode melhor esclarecer as vivências dos trabalhadores, produtores/ feirantes, que vivem e sobrevivem da informalidade e discute-se o potencial desse enfoque para o entendimento das atividades que ocorrem nas feiras e das relações sociais e produtivas que ali se estabelecem, propondo a expressão "rede socioprodutiva" para instigar o debate que deve ser considerado em outros estudos.Palavras-chave: Setor informal, Capital Social, Feiras, Setor de Confecção, Redes Socioprodutivas.Social networks and social capital in the formation of socio-productive networks: Study in a downtown garment street market of Fortaleza This essay discusses the concepts of informal work, social networks and social capital, intending to propose a reflection to what is called socio-productive networks, having the downtown street markets of Fortaleza as empirical field. To check the informality aspects and the characteristics of the networks that sustain this type of activity, an in-depth interview with a manufacturer/seller was held. Field observations and a bibliographic-documentary research were also included, which allowed a historic contextualization of this kind of market and a description of informality in Fortaleza, having newspaper materials and data from official Government institutions as sources. In the final considerations, we show that the study of the street markets, based on this point of view, can better clarify the experience of the workers, producers/salespeople, who live and survive from informality. We discuss the potential of this approach to the understanding of the activities that occur in the market and the social and productive relations that are established, proposing the expression "socio-productive network" to instigate a debate that should be considered in other studies.
