description The Brazilian state apparatus is a patchwork built upon a cascade of reform attemts over a span of sixty years. Layers of legislation have produced a complex and inconsistent institutional landscape that has made policy change a hard task. Four major public management policy reforms resultedin significant concstitucional changes. Those reforms produced outcomes in the form of Constitutional provisions and they reshaped the modus operandi of the federal administration. The approach adopted is comparative because it is oriented towards identifying similat]rities and differences among the four cases selected. The pattern of the Brazilian cases is intriguinding because the frequency, variety, and speed of the reforms followed a zigzag course. They do not fit in with the long term, gradual, and cumulative transformations the look olace in many developed countris. Each case study corresponds to a historical episode. The material is organized and analycatically narrated around inconnected events within the episode. Those events were significant un themselves and the clearly hoghlighted aspects os the means-ends chains. The framework adopted for the analysis was developed by Kingdon to explain pre-decisional and decision-making stages of the policy-making process. The reason in the Brazilian context, characterized by fluidity, unclear technologiesm chance, temporal sorting, and attention allocation. Policy change took place when events in the political, problem and policy streams coverged to generate windows of oppotunity, during wich public entrepreneurs puched theis policy colutions through top decision-making arenas. The investigation is centred on the dynamics of the policy processes. The main conclusion of the thesis refers to the essential role performed by entrepreneurs in getting the reforms approved. The influence of the reformers in establiching the default implementation model varied in the four cases because of problems of political feasibility, reformers', rotation, policity discontinuties, transitional legislation inconsistencies, and lack of top down political support Part one.
