Características estruturais e institucionalização de redes de poder em perspectiva comparada.

Abstract

The present study proposal is to advance in the comprehension that it has been called out, in the last years, of Brazilian economy dynamo: the agribusiness. From the conception of policy network, this paper has been sought to determine how the different policy networks in Mato Grosso do Sul s cattle breeding have gotten conformed. For such, it has been undertaken a study of multiple cases. For the milky territorial policy network case, it has been adopted as unit of analysis the political process that resulted on the inclusion of the type C pasteurized milk in the government's State acquisitions of Mato Grosso do Sul, destined to a specific social program, the Programa de Segurança Alimentar e Nutricional (PSAN) Program of Feeding and Nutritional Security. Therefore, the unit of analysis of beef cattle culture territorial policy network was the Programa de Melhorias na Cadeia Produtiva da Carne - Improvements Program in the Productive Network of Beef, orchestrated by the Serviço de Apoio às Micro e Pequenas Empresas de Mato Grosso do Sul (Sebrae/MS) - Support Service to the Mato Grosso do Sul small sized companies (Sebrae/MS). The results indicate that beef cattle culture territorial policy network can be seen as a political community, arrangement in network already well known in the literature, and that the milky policy network, weakly integrated and with multiple participants, it setups another specific type, that approaches the ideal model of diffused network. The results of this study show that the institutional densification in the political community of beef in Mato Grosso do Sul has brought positive results for the network organizations, as the shared use of resources for the training of actors technically deficient. The milky diffused network, then, is composed of actors who get results just limited in the strategic interaction. The ownership of resources, as it is clear, is enlarged when the actors get adapted to the wide institutional context that permeates their activities, letting thus the reference old frames that for decades, guided the decision taking in this agri business.
