Políticas públicas coordenadas e presidencialismo de coalizão: o caso do PROMESO

Public policies have been studied with various theoretical aspects as a basis. However, there is still a gap on issues related to the interconnection of actions taken by government agencies. These dimensions, when addressed, do not get close to the perspective of impacts derived from the architecture of coalition presidentialism on public policies, which, in the Brazilian case, corroborates its fragmentation and competition between government agencies that should work in an interconnected way. This article aims at identifying where this problem is expressed and the inflection point between the discourse of coordinated action and an implementation showing the opposite. To demonstrate how this occurs, we chose the Brazilian Program for Promoting Sustainability in Sub-Regional Spaces (PROMESO), which has shared agendas as one of its significant instruments. Research construction required a theoretical review that focuses on the institutional architecture of coalition presidentialism and political parties, besides adopting, in empirical investigation, the database of the Brazilian Federal Budget Department (SOF/MPOG) and the Brazilian Interconnected System of Government Financial Administration (SIAFI/MF), which enabled us to spatialize the distribution of public resources according to a party and region-based rationale, and refer to official documents from the Brazilian Ministry of National Integration (MI) that characterize the program addressed in this study. The research proved that coalition presidentialism directly affects public policies, highlighting a competitive nature between the federal government agencies, due to particular rationales, determined by directors at these institutions.

Disjunções legais e institucionais da política metropolitana e da politica nacional de desenvolvimento regional

espanolEl debate sobre los recortes territoriales definidos por la Politica Nacional de Desarrollo Regional y sus relaciones con las regiones metropolitanas brasilenas en el contexto de la politica, ha demostrado ser contradictoria al separar aquellos espacios que han estado conectados de forma natural. En el presente articulo, se aborda esta dimension paradojica por medio del dano generado por esta disyuncion, especialmente en municipios perifericos de las metropolis brasilenas. Para lograr este objetivo, se realizo una revision teorica en algunos temas transversales sobre cuestiones espaciales y de politica publica, asi como tambien se realizo un trabajo de recopilacion y analisis de datos. Aunque este trabajo permitio llevar a las conclusiones presentadas en el documento, las consideraciones aqui expuestas no son concluyentes en la importancia de la relacion de RM en el contexto de una politica de desarrollo para el pais. portuguesO debate em torno dos recortes territoriais definidos pela Politica Nacional de Desenvolvimento Regional e suas relacoes com as Regioes Metropolitanas brasileiras no contexto da politica tem se mostrado contraditorio com um claro afastamento de dois espacos que naturalmente estao conectados. E essa dimensao paradoxal que o presente artigo procura analisar buscando demonstrar os prejuizos dessa disjuncao, sobretudo para os municipios perifericos que integram as metropoles brasileiras. Para atingir tal objetivo, se fez necessario uma revisao teorica em alguns temas transversais as questoes espaciais e de politicas publicas, bem como um trabalho de coleta e analise de dados que permitiram chegar as conclusoes apresentadas no trabalho e tecer consideracoes, ainda nao conclusivas sobre a relacao e importância das RM’s no contexto de uma politica de desenvolvimento para o pais. EnglishThe debate on priority areas defined by the National Policy for Regional Development and its relations with the Brazilian Metropolitan Regions in the context of politics has shown contradictory with a clear separation of two spaces that are naturally connected. It is this paradoxical dimension that this article seeks to analyze as to demonstrate the damage this disjunction, especially for peripheral municipalities of the Brazilian metropolis. For this, it contains a theoretical revision about space issues and public policies, and also a collection work and analyzes of data that had allowed to arrive the conclusions presented in this article and to bring some points to the discussion, still not conclusive, about the metropolitan regional relation and importance in the country’s development policy.

As disputas territoriais entre distintas atividades económicas: o processo de “desturistificação” de Porto de Galinhas frente ao Complexo Portuário de SUAPE/PE

O presente artigo procura suscitar o debate em torno de um processo que ora se manifesta na area de Porto de Galinhas/Pernambuco – Brasil, com tracos de substituicao do turismo por outras atividades relacionadas ao Porto Industrial de SUAPE. Nao tentar oferecer respostas nem afirmar que esse e um caminho sem volta, mas procura evidenciar a dialetica espacial em face das estrategias de atores hegemonicos relacionados a economia global. Trata -se de um estudo prospectivo, baseado na literatura existente, mas que atraves da pesquisa de campo busca oferecer uma nova contribuicao ao entendimento desses movimentos do capital na apropriacao e uso dos territorios, evidenciando a mudanca sociespacial e seu legado para a paisagem do local.

PORTOS NO CONTEXTO DO MEIO TÉCNICO

In the contemporaneity, some spaces acquire a functional purpose and play an important role in the globalization’s architecture. Among them we can emphasize the ports, which constitute themselves in links, between different points of the earth and extensive hinterlands, depending on their connectivity. This importance is amplified according as these spaces incorporate more and more a rationality ruled by the scientific technical method, that gives them a different aspect of what were the ports in the past, as well as leads to an ambiance permeated by hegemonic logics and tries to answer to them satisfactorily. So, the new arrangements express the capitalism’s trajectory and its relationship with the technique in the visible aspect or in the norms and relationships established in these spaces.

O problema da integração de programas governamentais de desenvolvimento regional: o caso do PROMESO

As politicas publicas tem sido estudadas a partir de diferentes aspectos teoricos e tecnicos. No entanto, ainda persiste uma lacuna que enfrente questoes diversas relacionadas a intersetorialidade e a integracao de acoes das agencias governamentais. Essas dimensoes quando estudadas pouco se aproximam da perspectiva dos impactos decorrentes da arquitetura institucional brasileira sobre as politicas pulicas. Assim, a pesquisa buscou identificar onde esse carater disjunto se manifesta, partindo da literatura sobre intersetorialidade, para entao explicitar, atraves de pesquisa documental, essa dissociacao entre a oficialidade da acao coordenada e a pratica da implementacao. A proposta do artigo e contribuir para a construcao de uma metodologia que possibilite compreender alguns limites dessa atuacao intersetorial partindo de dimensoes ate entao pouco tratados nos estudos. A construcao da pesquisa demandou uma revisao teorica que transitou da ciencia politica ao desenvolvimento regional, passando pelo debate da transversalidade e intersetorialidade em politicas publicas, utilizou bases de dados da Secretaria de orcamento Federal (SOF/MPOG) e do Sistema de Acompanhamento Financeiro (SIAFI/MF) alem de consultar documentos oficiais do Ministerio da Integracao Nacional que caracterizam o Programa de Desenvolvimento Sustentavel de Mesorregioes Diferenciadas (PROMESO) objeto do estudo especifico. Adicionalmente foram consultadas bases de dados do tribunal Superior Eleitoral (TSE). O trabalho chegou a conclusao que as politicas publicas caracterizadas pelas intersetorialidade, apresentam marcas claras de competicao e pouca coordenacao entre as agencias do governo federal em funcao de seguirem logicas paticularizadas, determinadas pelos dirigentes dessas instituicoes.
