Políticas de desenvolvimento local como foco nos arranjos produtivos locais: porque a questão ascendeu à agenda do governo brasileiro?

Abstract

This thesis aims to analyze the local development policy in Brazil, focusing on Local Productive Arrangements. This is an analysis whose focus is centered on the pre-decision phase of the decision agenda. We are interested in understanding why the local development model rose to the Brazilian government's agenda. Thus, the investigation is based on understanding the problems that pushed the issue to integrate the Brazilian government's agenda from 2002 onwards; the origin of ideas about local development and its diffusion process; as well as the political context under which the ideas find their suitability to become solutions to a given problem. In this direction, the model of multiple flows, developed by Kingdon (2003) was used - which analyzes the formation of agenda setting under three flows: the flow of problems, the flow of alternatives and the political flow.
