The scourge of hun- ger has been present throughout the history of humanity, but it is unacceptable that today so many people are still unable to eat properly despite the availability of modern means of food pro- duction. Convinced that hunger can and must be eradicated, Presi- dent Lula took a clear political decision and launched, in 2003, the Zero Hunger project, which mobilized various public and private efforts around a common goal: that of overcoming the food and nutritional insecurity that affects thousands of Brazilians. This book deals with the Zero Hunger Program, reflecting on its formulation and implementation, the public instruments that have been jointly mobilized, the strategic role of family farming in the process, and some of its results. More importantly, it also contains valuable recommendations for countries that are study- ing this issue seriously. The aim of the Ministry of Agrarian Development in present- ing this new edition is to broaden and open up the debate to new audiences. We hope that it will prove of benefit to all those who dream of a world without hunger. Gilberto José Vargas Spier (Pepe Vargas) Minister of State for Agrarian Development 7 INTRODU C T I ON TO THE PORTUGUESE EDITION “We are going to create appropriate conditions for all people in our country to have three decent meals a day, every day, without having to depend on donations from anybody.

The literature usually stresses the role of elected politicians and the parliament in framing policies and underestimates governmental stakeholders, who do not hold elected offices, and bureaucrats. This article aims to highlight the active role of high-level federal bureaucrats in the design of policies. The analysis reclaims the classical categories and concepts developed by Lindblom (1980) and Crozier (1964), which points to the hybrid behaviour of bureaucrats and politically-appointed actors. Our aim is to show that decision-making is the result of the interactions between elected politicians and hybrid high-level federal bureaucracy, who organize themselves in groups around different technical-political projects.

Objetivo do fundo é financiar projetos empresariais estratégicos do Brasil no exterior. O presidente da Casa, Garibaldi Alves, acredita que o Plenário aprovará o projeto, mas não dará ao governo um “cheque em branco”, disse. Já o líder do PSDB, Arthur Virgílio, afirmou que a criação do fundo pode ser uma “tentativa sub-reptícia” do governo de capitalizar o BNDES. Ele disse que acreditava ser inócua a idéia de criação do fundo, mas agora a considera nociva. 4 e 5 Lula participa da homenagem Plenário aos 20 anos da Pereira Jonas aprova duas Constituição medidas provisórias O Congresso realiza hoje, às 10h, no Plenário Duas medidas provi- da Câmara, sessão solene sórias foram aprovadas para comemorar os 20 ontem.

    Why Has Participatory Budgeting Adoption Declined in Brazil? Carla de Paiva Bezerra PhD Candidate University of São Paulo (USP) [email protected] | carlabezerra.info Murilo de Oliveira Junqueira Assistant Professor Federal University of Piauí (UFPI) [email protected] Version 3.1 Prepared for the 114th Annual Meeting & Exhibition of the American Political Science Association, “Democracy and Its Discontents” Boston, Massachusetts August 30 – September 2, 2018 The authors wish to acknowledge Paolo Spada for providing the PB dataset and are thankful for his comments about the paper. The authors appreciate the extremely important comments and suggestions made throughout different stages of this paper made by Marta Arretche, Ruth Berins Collier, Adrian Gurza Lavalle, Ursula Peres, Wagner Romão, Rachel Bernhard, Anna Callis, Christopher Carter, Tanu Kumar, Natália Moreira, Rhea Myerscough, Mathias Poertner, Andres Schipani and Guadalupe Tuñón. The authors also wish to acknowledge the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development – Brazil (CNPq) funding. 2 Abstract Why Has Participatory Budgeting Adoption Declined in Brazil? Participatory Budgeting (PB) is a policy innovation that originated in Brazil and is recognized worldwide by scholars and international organizations as an effective policy tool for directly involving the population in decisions about the local budget. Its diffusion in Brazil was strongly stimulated by the Workers' Party (Partido dos Trabalhadores - PT), as a showcase of the "Petista Way of Governing". However, when the Party took the Federal Office, it abandoned PB as its main participatory policy priority. The motivation for such drastic change in policy preference remains unexplained, by both scholars and the Party itself. To understand the reasons for it, we present an original hypothesis, based on party adaptation to increasing fiscal and budgetary rigidity.

The concept refers to the governmental qualities of the state; Foucault was particularly interested in the development of new forms and strategies of coercion, control and vigilance (“security apparatus”) used to make people conform to norms imposed by bourgeois leaders (Foucault, 1978; Veiga-Neto, 2008). It goes without saying that we are talking about repurposing the State to strengthen even more the power and wealth of capitalists against the interests of workers.
