Policy analysis in Brazil

Jeni Vaitsman, José Mendes Ribeiro and Lenaura Lobato (editors)

London: Policy Press, 2013

Presentation:

Policy analysis in Brazil is part of the International Library of Policy Analysis and is the first book

to paint a comprehensive panorama of policy analysis activities in Brazil. Highlighting the unique

features of the Brazilian example, it brings together 18 studies by leading Brazilian social

scientists on policy analysis as a widespread activity pursued in a variety of policy fields and

through different methods by governmental and non-governmental institutions and actors. It

shows how policy analysis emerged as part of Brazilian state-building from the 1930s onwards.

With the democratisation process of the late 1980s, policy analysis began to include innovative

elements of social participation in public management. This unique book offers key insights into

the practice of this field and is indispensable reading for scholars, policy makers and students of

the social sciences interested in learning how policy analysis developed and functions in Brazil.
