Das caravelas ao accountabilitya odisséia da administração pública brasileira

Resumo

Considering a historical point of view, the study aimed to explain how patrimonialism practices are installed in the Brazilian Public Administration, analyzing aspects which collide with the essence of accountability. Such practices are considered to embrace a system of values which overlaps with Public Administration, that is, they exist at the same social plan, a discourse which makes the bureaucratic system and its State-modernization characteristics compatible with a set values which relate at personal, family and power levels. These values have been built over a long historical period, which hinders accountability. The study included several aspects such as the formation of the Brazilian State, the description of bureaucracy in the colonial, imperial and republican periods, the identification of the administrative reforms of 1936 and 1995, which somehow attempted to eliminate patrimonialism and implement a new culture to conduct the public business in Brazil. The study also included speech analysis of officials working for the Executive and Judicial Branches the municipal level, so as to verify the contemporaneity of patrimonialism. Based on the reflections made, besides the fact that the solidification of accountability is not of interest to politics, it was possible to conclude that it is also not consistent with self-referred patrimonial bureaucracy.
