Resumen
Descripción
National development planning is seen as
an important tool of economic development, and in Brazil,
the 1988 Constitution, includes the "Plano Plurianual
de Acao - PPA" (i.e., multi-year development planning),
together with the Law of Budget Directives, and the annual
budget laws, as part of a set of legal instruments for
fiscal, and public expenditure management. Its main role is
to provide the government with strategic guidelines for the
allocation of public resources, to improve efficiency, and
ultimately achieve a higher level of development. To
summarize, Brazil's PPA is a unique attempt to use
techniques of planning, transform the Brazilian Federal
bureaucracy into a modern, results-oriented entity, and
effectively provide public goods and services as demanded by
its citizens. Its goals of revamping the state's
capacity to instill a culture of entrepreneurial management
in the public sector, are ambitious; yet, its approach to
implementation is advisedly cautious. Its conceptual design
is built explicitly on experiences form the previous PPA,
and, the development of the new plan followed a careful
preparation process that lasted more than two years. The
"model" is multi-faceted, and highly complex,
appropriate for an evolving process, in which the Government
is constantly introducing adjustments to the model's
design, as encountered from practical implementation challenges.
