Resumo: | Since the mid 1990’s Brazilian companies have faced a huge structural reform associated with trade liberalisation, deregulation and decrease of state intervention. In this context they have been pressured to behave in a more socially and environmentally responsible manner. The objective of this paper is to identify whether environmental strategies were influenced by degree of internationalization, size and stakeholders’ pressures. It was used the strategy of case study with the technique of systematic interviews for primary data collection. The research was conducted in petrochemical, steel, textile and shoe industries, established in different Brazilian states, chosen by theoretical sampling. The empirical results demonstrate that modern preventive natural environmental approaches seem clear in large companies that have international investors and operate in global markets. It is markable in the steel and petrochemical companies. The study finds that the structural reform has caused a positive environmental effect on Brazilian companies because global ties increase self-regulation pressures and enforces the engagement of a new range of stakeholders. |

A partir de 1990, as empresas brasileiras observaram e participaram de uma profunda reforma estrutural. Paralelamente, as empresas foram pressionadas por um comportamento mais responsável do ponto de vista ambiental e social. Este artigo discute o efeito na proatividade ambiental de empresas brasileiras associada com a reforma estrutural, decorrente do “Plano Real”, que resultou em liberalismo comercial, desregulação e decréscimo da participação do Estado na economia. A pesquisa foi conduzida nos setores petroquímico, siderúrgico, têxtil e calçadista em empresas instaladas em diversos estados brasileiros. A metodologia de estudo de caso múltiplo foi adotada através de entrevistas e visitas as instalações fabris para coleta de dados primários visando identificar se as estratégias ambientais foram influenciadas pelo grau de internacionalização, tamanho da empresa e pressão dos stakeholders. Os resultados empíricos indicam que uma abordagem moderna e preventiva com relação a questão ambiental é claramente identificada em grandes empresas que operam no mercado internacional e que possuem investidores externos. A pesquisa identificou este comportamento ocorre, principalmente, nas empresas petroquímicas e siderúrgicas. O estudo demonstra que a reforma estrutural resultou em um efeito positivo na proatividade das empresas brasileiras, em virtude do aumento das pressões e do engajamento dos stakeholders.Editora Mackenzie2010-05-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionEstudo de Caso MúltiploAvaliado por ParesEstudo de Caso Múltiploapplication/pdfhttps://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/RAM/article/view/1588Revista de Administração Mackenzie; Vol. 11 No. 4 (2010)Revista de Administração Mackenzie; Vol. 11 Núm. 4 (2010)Revista de Administração Mackenzie (Mackenzie Management Review); v. 11 n. 4 (2010)1678-69711518-6776reponame:RAM.
