Resumo: | Regulatory agencies around the world, like other transplanted institutions, might look very similar if one analyzes solely their institutional design. However, there are considerable differences in how they operate in practice. This article shows some of these differences in the Brazilian context. The institutional reforms that took place in Brazil in the mid-1990s created independent regulatory agencies (IRAs) with institutional features that largely resemble the features of US IRAs. However, in contrast to the United States, Brazil has one of the strongest presidencies in the world. Due to the peculiarities of Presidential systems in Latin America in general and Brazil in particular, the theory of congressional dominance that is largely used in the US fails to capture the reality of Brazilian IRAs. This article proposes a theory of presidential dominance to describe that Brazilian reality, and discusses the normative consequences of this presidential control over IRAs from a constitutional perspective. |

Agências regulatórias ao redor do mundo, como outras instituições transplantadas, podem parecer bem similares se forem analisadas somente no que diz respeito ao seu desenho institucional. Todavia, há diferenças consideráveis em como tais instituições operam na prática. Este artigo relata algumas dessas diferenças no contexto brasileiro. As reformas institucionais que foram realizadas no Brasil durante a metade dos anos 1990 criaram agências regulatórias independentes (ARIs) com características institucionais semelhantes aos atributos das ARIs nos EUA. Entretanto, em contraste com os Estados Unidos, o Brasil possui um dos mais fortes presidencialismos no mundo. Devido às peculiaridades dos sistemas presidencialistas na América Latina em geral e no Brasil em particular, a teoria da dominância do Congresso que é largamente utilizada nos EUA não dá conta da realidade das ARIs brasileiras. Este artigo propõe uma teoria da dominância presidencial para descrever a realidade brasileira, e também discute as consequências desse controle nas ARIs desde uma perspectiva constitucional.Rede de Estudos Empíricos em Direito2016-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/article/view/12610.19092/reed.v3i2.126Brazilian Journal of Empirical Legal Studies; Vol. 3 No. 2 (2016): Brazilian Journal of Empirical Legal StudiesRevista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito; v. 3 n. 2 (2016): Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito2319-081710.19092/reed.v3i2reponame:Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direitoinstname:Rede de Pesquisa Empírica em Direito (REED)instacron:RPEDporhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/article/view/126/112Mota Prado, Marianainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-07-05T16:31:18Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/126Revistahttps://reedrevista.org/reedONGhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/oaimvchein@gmail.com||reed.revista@gmail.com2319-08172319-0817opendoar:2020-07-05T16:31:18Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito - Rede de Pesquisa Empírica em Direito (REED)false |

Regulatory agencies around the world, like other transplanted institutions, might look very similar if one analyzes solely their institutional design. However, there are considerable differences in how they operate in practice. This article shows some of these differences in the Brazilian context. The institutional reforms that took place in Brazil in the mid-1990s created independent regulatory agencies (IRAs) with institutional features that largely resemble the features of US IRAs. However, in contrast to the United States, Brazil has one of the strongest presidencies in the world. Due to the peculiarities of Presidential systems in Latin America in general and Brazil in particular, the theory of congressional dominance that is largely used in the US fails to capture the reality of Brazilian IRAs. This article proposes a theory of presidential dominance to describe that Brazilian reality, and discusses the normative consequences of this presidential control over IRAs from a constitutional perspective. |
