Resumo: | Despite being one of the major economic phenomena in recent history, privatization causes received relatively little attention in analysis until quite recently. This qualitative paper summarizes the causes that led to the privatization of state-owned enterprises, with the specific case of TAP Portugal being analyzed. For a better comprehension of the theme, the characteristics and the context of state enterprises creation, as well as the privatization movement and its impacts, were analyzed as well. The general objective of the study is to understand if there are differences between the motivations to privatize and the expectations that TAP Portugal executives and workers have on the matter, therefore using TAP Portugal as the case study to support the analysis. Some interviews were performed to TAP Portugal executive members and workers, and results show that, privatization causes and TAP’s members’ expectations are aligned in some motivations. The intervention of external organisms in managing state enterprises, the necessity of reduction of public sector borrowing requirement, the limited access to capital, the ineffective state administration, bureaucracy concerns, management conditions, lack of investment capacity and the role of the state, are the main conclusions that led TAP to be privatized. |

Este documento qualitativo resume as causas que levaram à privatização das empresas estatais, sendo analisado o caso específico da TAP Portugal. Para uma melhor compreensão do tema, foram analisados as características e o contexto da criação das empresas estatais, bem como o movimento de privatização e seus impactos. O objetivo geral do estudo é compreender se existem diferenças entre as motivações para a privatização e as expectativas que os executivos e trabalhadores da TAP Portugal têm sobre a matéria, utilizando a TAP Portugal como estudo de caso para apoiar a análise. Algumas entrevistas foram realizadas a membros executivos e trabalhadores da TAP Portugal, e os resultados mostram que as causas da privatização e as expectativas dos membros da TAP estão alinhadas em algumas motivações. As principais conclusões que levaram a TAP a ser privatizada são a intervenção de organismos externos na gestão das empresas estatais, a necessidade da redução de financiamento do sector público, o acesso limitado ao capital, a ineficácia da administração Pública, as preocupações burocráticas, as condições de gestão, a falta de capacidade de investimento e o papel do Estado.Fontes Filho, Joaquim RubensVeritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaRodrigues, Joana Isabel do Deserto Dias2018-11-28T13:45:03Z2017-03-1520172017-03-15T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/26193TID:201703076enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-12T17:31:40Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/26193Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:20:54.204343Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
