Resumo: This article investigates the tendency of the local councilors to support the mayor and to pass the bills enacted by the municipal Executive without further considerations, usually called in Brazil as “governismo”. It also investigates the incentives for this behavior and the strategies mobilized by the mayors to build support in the local council. The analysis was based on an unprecedented set of data resulting from a survey conducted with a sample of local councilors in Minas Gerais. The evidence gathered shows that the “governismo” is far less widespread than one might suppose and that there is an expressive number of councilors willing to remain in opposition and to mobilize executive oversight mechanisms. The article contributes to shed light on an aspect still little explored in the literature and to challenge the idea of a widespread subordination of city councilors to the mayors.

El análisis se basó en datos de una encuesta realizada con una muestra de concejales de los municipios de Minas Gerais. Las evidencias muestran que el gobiernismo está menos extendido de lo que uno podría suponer y que hay espacio para la acción independiente de los concejales. También revelan que hay una gran proporción de concejales dispuestos a permanecer en la oposición y movilizar mecanismos de control y supervisión ejecutiva. El artículo contribuye a arrojar luz sobre un aspecto aún poco explorado por la literatura sobre el tema y problematiza la idea de un gobiernismo generalizado a nivel municipal y de la subordinación de los concejos municipales a los alcaldes.Este artigo investiga a extensão do governismo no nível municipal, os incentivos para o alinhamento ao Executivo e as estratégias utilizadas pelos prefeitos para construir sua base de apoio na câmara municipal. A análise se baseou em dados de um survey inédito realizado em uma amostra de vereadores de municípios de Minas Gerais. As evidências mostram que o governismo é menos disseminado do que se poderia supor e que há espaço para uma ação independente dos vereadores. Também revelam que há uma parcela importante de vereadores disposta a permanecer na oposição e a mobilizar mecanismos de fiscalização e controle do Executivo. O artigo contribui para lançar luzes a respeito de um aspecto ainda pouco explorado pela literatura sobre o tema e problematiza a ideia do governismo generalizado no nível municipal e da completa subordinação das câmaras municipais aos prefeitos.Universidade Estadual de Campinas2021-05-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoTextoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/op/article/view/8665630Opinião Pública; Vol. 27 No. 1 (2021): jan./abr.; 189-229Opinião Pública; Vol. 27 Núm. 1 (2021): jan./abr.; 189-229Opinião Pública; v. 27 n. 1 (2021): jan./abr.; 189-2291807-0191reponame:Opinião Pública (Online)instname:Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)instacron:UNICAMPporhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/op/article/view/8665630/26679Brazil; ContemporaryBrasil; ContemporáneoBrasil; ContemporâneoCopyright (c) 2021 Marta Mendes da Rochahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRocha, Marta Mendes da 2021-05-13T16:24:58Zoai:ojs.periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br:article/8665630Revistahttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/opPUBhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/op/oaicesop@unicamp.br||racael@unicamp.br || rop@unicamp.br1807-01910104-6276opendoar:2021-05-13T16:24:58Opinião Pública (Online) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)false
