Resumo: | The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome called Covid-19 represents a dramatic social fact that has profoundly impacted institutions and populations around the world. It is a focusing event (Birkland, 1998; Kingdon, 2014) on a global scale, to which national governments have responded with emergency actions that show varying degrees of effectiveness and are contingent on scarce resources. In early 2020, the World Bank (WB) launched the Crisis Response Program (PRC), in force between April 2020 and June 2021. In order to receive the grant, countries needed to apply proposing a project aimed at emergency actions to tackle Covid-19. In this context, the article examines the influence of pre-existing state capacities as an explanatory factor for the odds of a country receiving a grant to carry out a cooperation project, using the annual average of approved projects as a proxy, from date of membership of the WB until 2019, and as control variables: location in the African region, existence of Covid-19 cases, global health security index and national per capita income. The logistic regression results showed that the chances of approval of a Covid-19 project by the World Bank increase the higher the annual average of projects previously approved by the financial institution and the country's per capita income. While the first finding confirms the central hypothesis, the second explains a positive causal relationship between the predictor and the dependent variable, differently than expected. |

Trata-se de um evento focalizador (Birkland, 1998; Kingdon, 2014) de escala global, ao qual os governos nacionais têm respondido com ações emergenciais de eficácia variável e contingenciadas pela escassez de recursos. No início de 2020 o Banco Mundial (WB) lançou o Programa de Resposta à Crise (PRC), vigente entre abril de 2020 e junho de 2021. A fim de receber os recursos financeiros, os países necessitavam encaminhar projetos voltados a ações emergenciais de enfrentamento à Covid-19. Nesse contexto, o artigo examina a influência das capacidades estatais preexistentes como fator explicativo das razões de chance de um país ter projeto de cooperação aprovado, utilizando-se como proxy a média anual de projetos aprovados, desde o ingresso no WB até 2019, e como variáveis de controle: localização na região africana, existência de casos de Covid-19, índice global de segurança em saúde e renda nacional per capita. Os resultados da regressão logística evidenciaram que as chances de aprovação de projeto Covid-19 pelo Banco Mundial aumentam quanto maiores forem a média anual de projetos anteriormente aprovados pela instituição financeira e a renda per capita do país. Enquanto o primeiro achado confirma a hipótese central, o segundo explicita uma relação causal positiva da variável preditora com a dependente, em sentido distinto do esperado.Programa de Pós-Graduação em Sociologia da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul2022-08-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/sociologias/article/view/12162010.1590/18070337-121620SOCIOLOGIAS; Vol. 24 No. 60 (2022): Dossier: Covid-19 and SocietySOCIOLOGIAS; Vol. 24 Núm. 60 (2022): Dossier: Covid-19 y SociedadSociologias; v. 24 n. 60 (2022): Dossiê: Covid-19 e Sociedade1807-03371517-4522reponame:Sociologias (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/sociologias/article/view/121620/85974Copyright (c) 2022 Leticia Maria Schabbachhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSchabbach, Leticia Maria2022-08-29T18:06:48Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/121620Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/sociologiasPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/sociologias/oai||revsoc@ufrgs.br1807-03371517-4522opendoar:2022-08-29T18:06:48Sociologias (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false |
