    Os Governos FHC e a Reforma do Estado no Brasil do Real: em busca da legitimidade perdida – uma abordagem histórico-sociológica

    A obra Os Governos FHC e a Reforma do Estado no Brasil do Real: em busca da legitimidade perdida – uma abordagem histórico-sociológica, que ora é apresentada ao público, trata da explicação (relação de causalidade), da compreensão (apreensão dos sentidos do mundo evocados por indivíduos, grupos sociais, coletividades, sociedades e civilizações) e da interpretação (percepção das significações mais absconsas por conta da reprodução das condições materiais e espirituais de existência) dos processos sociais, econômicos, políticos e culturais que conduzem à reforma do Estado brasileiro, por ocasião da ascensão político-institucional de Fernando Henrique Cardoso à Presidência da República Federativa do Brasil. No decurso de um interregno cronológico que vai de 1995 a 2002, assinala, assim, o exercício de dois mandatos consecutivos, proporcionados e chancelados pelo ineditismo representado pela aprovação do instituto da reeleição (Emenda Constitucional n.º 16, de 4 de junho de 1997). The most striking theme in this study is the one that focuses on the centrality of state reform in Brazil, whether the latter is defined as a broad reform (a reform whose breadth presupposes inter-relational dynamics between the State – 1st sector – the Market – 2nd sector – and the Society – 3rd sector), or as a reform stricto sensu (mainly administrative reform).
    Nesse sentido, o recurso ao estudo das políticas públicas de emprego serve como parâmetro para avaliar o quanto o tema da reforma do Estado constitui uma realidade concreta. De igual modo, os depoimentos de altos funcionários que integram a tecnoestrutura estatal (núcleo estratégico) acerca da funcionalidade da administração pública federal, ou, simplesmente, gerenciamento público, servem para corroborar a dinâmica transformacional que se verifica no contexto interno do Estado. Em suma, uma das principais características deste livro é a fluência e a desenvoltura com as quais o autor transita por todo o espectro das Ciências Sociais em geral, por sua vez associado à perspectiva histórica, ao largo, portanto, do formalismo sociológico.

    The FHC’s Governments and the Reformation of the State in Brazil of the Real: in search of lost legitimacy – a historical-sociological approach

    The work “The FHC’s Governments and the Reformation of the State in Brazil of the Real: in search of lost legitimacy – a historical-sociological approach”, which is now presented to the public, deals with the explanation (relation of causality), the comprehension (understanding of the senses of the world evoked by individuals, social groups, collectivities, societies and civilizations) and of the interpretation (perception of the most hidden means by the reproduction of the material and spiritual conditions of existence) of social, economic, political and cultural changes that lead to the reformation of the Brazilian State, on the occasion of the political-institutional rise of Fernando Henrique Cardoso to the Presidency of the Federative Republic of Brazil. In the course of a chronological interregnum from 1995 to 2002, it marks the exercise of two consecutive mandates, proportionated by the novelty represented by the approval of the institute of reelection (Constitutional Amendment no. 16 of June 4, 1997 ). The most striking theme in this study is the one that focuses on the centrality of state reform in Brazil, whether the latter is defined as a broad reform (a reform whose breadth presupposes inter-relational dynamics between the State – 1st sector – the Market – 2nd sector – and the Society – 3rd sector), or as a reform stricto sensu (mainly administrative reform). The most striking theme in this study is the one that focuses on the centrality of state reform in Brazil, whether the latter is defined as a broad reform (a reform whose breadth presupposes inter-relational dynamics between the State – 1st sector – the Market – 2nd sector – and the Society – 3rd sector), or as a reform stricto sensu (mainly administrative reform). In this sense, the use of the study of public employment policies serves as a parameter to evaluate how much the subject of State reform is a concrete reality. Likewise, the statements of senior officials that integrate the state techno-structure (strategic core) about the functionality of the federal public administration, or simply, public management, serve to corroborate the transformational dynamics that occur in the internal context of the State. In short, one of the main characteristics of this book is the fluency and the resourcefulness with which the author transits through the whole spectrum of social sciences in general, in turn, associated with the historical perspective, therefore, away from sociological formalism.
