ABSTRACTThe literature on public policies implementation emphasizes that the larger the amount of actors involved in the execution process of a given policy, larger will be the chances of lack of success and failure in their implementation (Pressman; Wildavsky, 1984; O'Toole; Montjoy, 1984; e LUNDIN, 2007). It is particularly stressed that there are non-identified actors as interested parts during the policy elaboration phase, who arise during a given public policy implementation process and end up by exerting some influence on it. The present article intends to describe the influence of new actors in 'Luz para Todos' Program and check how this factor is associated to the performance variation as observed in the scope of this public policy. Results show that the amount of new actors involved in the implementation process of a public policy is not a necessary and/or sufficient condition to explain performance in this public policy execution. However, the new actors' participation quality represents a relevant factor in the performance obtained.Key-words: Implementation of Public Policies; New Actors; Performance; Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA); Luz para Todos Program.
