Paper Abstract:	Smart City is defined as a system of people interacting and using energies, materials, services and financing to catalyze economic development and improve the quality of life. Faced with such multidisciplinarity brought by the concept, there is concern about the efficiency of public management and, more specifically, the focus of this research: how public policies can influence the dynamics of the labor market, impacting on the creation and maintenance of a smart city. With the focus on labor market policies, this work is at the intersection of two research fields: smart city and public management. From the first field, we mean the evolution of the studies in smart city, the evaluative dimensions commonly used for a smart city, and it is understood that a city will only be smart if it uses technology with the main purpose of providing better living conditions for citizens, in this case, providing adequate working conditions. From the second field of study, the models experienced in public management are evolved, focusing on public policies on the labor market, so that it is possible to identify a smart city evaluative dimension in labor market policy: active policies and passive employment policies. The theoretical lens used in the research will be the institutional approach, since it allows analyzing how much the current configurations of given context, with its institutions guiding the human interactions, predispose formations more or less adherent to a model of smart city propitiating e-democracy or e-government. The contextual formatting to be analyzed will be different types of market economies found in each city under future analysis. This research is being developed to support a doctoral thesis that intend to realize comparative case studies of global cities (São Paulo and Shanghai). This article will present the bibliographic review, that is, the survey of the conceptual contribution that will guide future researches.
