Resumo: | As the COVID-19 pandemic has spread worldwide in 2020, populations, authorities, and local and global health governance institutions have been affected differently. Global Health Diplomacy and “paradiplomacy” have become relevant instruments and arenas for the challenges raised by the pandemic, especially for non-State or subnational actors. This Essay analyzes the case of the Brazilian state of Maranhão during the pandemic, which used a “wartime operation” to purchase more than a hundred mechanical ventilators on the international market, over the Federal Government’s head, at a moment of fierce international competition for medical supplies and equipment. The Essay examines the principal aspects, contexts, reasons, factors, actors, and actions that contextualize the operation conducted by the state of Maranhão as an activity in paradiplomacy and Global Health Diplomacy by a subnational government in Brazil. We analyzed these concepts in light of the literature on the topic and studied the action by Maranhão based on cross-analysis of data from documents, statements, and news coverage. We conclude that the case of Maranhão illustrates the capacity of subnational bodies to respond to global emergencies, mainly in contexts of inefficacy or absence of the Federal executive, legitimizing independent action aimed at saving lives. |

La llamada Diplomacia en Salud Global y la “paradiplomacia” se convirtieron en instrumentos y campos de relevancia ante los desafíos presentados por la pandemia, sobre todo para actores no estatales o entes subnacionales. Este Ensayo analiza el caso del Estado de Maranhão, Brasil, en el contexto de la pandemia, el cual mediante una “operación de guerra”, compró en el mercado internacional más de cien respiradores, aun a pesar del Gobierno Federal, en un momento de acérrima competición internacional por materiales y equipamientos médicos. El Ensayo investiga los principales aspectos, contextos, razones, factores, actores y acciones que contextualizan la operación realizada por el Estado de Maranhão como una actividad paradiplomática y de Diplomacia en Salud Global de un ente subnacional en Brasil. Analizamos los conceptos citados a la luz de la literatura sobre el tema y estudiamos la actuación de Maranhão, a partir del cruce de datos de documentos, pronunciamientos y noticias. Concluimos que el caso marañense ilustra la capacidad de entes locales en responder a las emergencias de cuño global, principalmente en contextos de ineficacia o ausencia del ejecutivo federal, legitimando acciones independientes que visen la protección a la vida.À medida que a pandemia de COVID-19 se espalhou pelo mundo em 2020, populações, autoridades e instituições locais e globais de governança em saúde foram atingidas de maneira distinta.
