Resumo: | The proliferation of management councils of public policies gives rise to assessing their potential to deepen the democratic contents of the public management and increase the effectiveness of public policies through social control. With this purpose, this theoretical essay opposes the representative and deliberative dimensions in democracy to criticism against the representative system and the democratic method of aggregating preferences, and it also analyzes the propensity for government accountability as for the signalization of policies processed by the council. Argumentation relies on significant international studies about the models of representative and deliberative democracy and on dialogue with Brazilian studies addressing the theme social control. It is concluded that the councils have potential to foster a democratic deepening in management of public policies, particularly by strengthening conditions that enable an egalitarian decision-making process. Nevertheless, such potential is closely related to the geographical domain and the sectoral scope: municipal participatory bodies with an only scope have greater democratic potential than national bodies having a broader range of themes. In any case, making this potential a reality is conditioned to institutional arrangements that enable incentives to ensure the legitimacy of representatives both of the civil society and the government, the egalitarian decision-making process, and the availability of tools to enforce council’s decisions. This article hopes to contribute to developing the analytical tools needed to study the councils and build effective institutional arrangements of these bodies vis-à-vis their democratic and effectiveness goals. |

Com esse intuito, este ensaio teórico contrapõe as dimensões representativa e deliberativa de democracia com as críticas ao sistema representativo e ao método democrático de agregação de preferências, e analisa, ainda, a propensão à responsabilização do governo no tocante às sinalizações de políticas processadas pelo conselho. A argumentação apoia-se em estudos internacionais importantes sobre os modelos representativo e deliberativo de democracia em diálogo com referências nacionais sobre o tema controle social. Conclui-se que os conselhos possuem potencial para promover o aprofundamento democrático na gestão das políticas públicas, particularmente pelo fortalecimento de condições que viabilizam um processo deliberativo igualitário. No entanto, tal potencial é estreitamente relacionado ao âmbito geográfico e à abrangência setorial: instâncias participativas municipais e de escopo singular possuem maior potencial democrático do que instâncias nacionais de amplitude temática mais abrangente. Em qualquer caso, a realização desse potencial condiciona-se a arranjos institucionais que viabilizem os incentivos para assegurar a legitimidade tanto dos representantes da sociedade civil como do governo, o processo deliberativo igualitário e a disponibilidade dos instrumentos de enforcement das decisões do conselho. Este artigo almeja contribuir para o desenvolvimento do ferramental analítico necessário ao estudo dos conselhos e à construção de arranjos institucionais efetivos dessas instâncias vis-à-vis seus objetivos democráticos e de eficiência.Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas da Fundação Getulio Vargas2015-10-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/23196Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 13 No. 4 (2015); 894 a 909Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 13 Núm. 4 (2015); 894 a 909Cadernos EBAPE.BR; v. 13 n. 4 (2015); 894 a 9091679-3951reponame:Cadernos EBAPE.BRinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/23196/55529Copyright (c) 2015 Cadernos EBAPE.BRinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGomes, Eduardo Granha Magalhães2016-10-10T17:38:48Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/23196Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebapehttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/oaicadernosebape@fgv.br||cadernosebape@fgv.br1679-39511679-3951opendoar:2024-05-13T09:59:52.555791Cadernos EBAPE.BR - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true |
