O processo de mutabilidade divisional interna no Brasil: uma análise da criação de novos municípios no estado da Paraíba.

Abstract

This work aims to analyze the creation of municipalities after the promulgation of the 1988 Constitution, demonstrating the emancipation of cities that occurred in recent years in the State of Paraíba, in particular the city of Boa Vista, located in Cariri Paraiba. The Federal State allowed a greater degree of decentralization of power, because it is organized by the existence of more than one power center holder of political, administrative and legislative autonomy, and so soon, municipalities gained status of federal entities. Thus, with the creation of these new entities in the country, they had direct access to the resources passed by the respective states and the Union, especial lywithregard to the Municipalities Participation Fund (FPM), which eventually bring citizens closer to public administration, and may there for bee better met their demands. Due to the unbridled creation of municipalities, the National Congress drafted in 1996, Constitutional Amendment Nº 15, in an attempt to curb the high number of municipalities creation that occurred in Brazil. In order to verify the process of creation of municipalities in the country, we investigated the effects of emancipation in the local life of Boa Vista: the relationship of citizens with the approach of public entities. For the execution of this work, we conducted a survey of data from the IBGE, was also one literature searches and developed a field survey in the municipality selected by interview with public managers and the public.
