Resumo:
It is true that the Brazilian federative arrangement suffered from the direct influence of the 1988 Constitution. Within the perceived changes, one can highlight the role of local governments and their autonomy in the implementation of public policies. Even so, this political, administrative and financial autonomy does not change the fact that one of the main sources of resources for municipalities is the Union, from which municipal administrations raise funds, making it a crucial issue of their budget. Thus, the problem of this research is to know what are the main challenges in raising funds from federal programs, by subnational entities, in the period from 2014 to 2022? The general objective was to identify the main challenges in the process of raising funds from federal programs, by subnational entities, during the period 2014-2022. Thus, the main justification for carrying out this research is to shed light on the difficulties of financing public policies, which is a topic of great relevance. With regard to the methodological route, the research is exploratory descriptive in nature, with qualitative and quantitative approach methods. A bibliographical study was carried out, based on theoretical surveys, with a subsequent collection of data, of three natures: 1) secondary data on Brazil; 2) secondary data on the municipalities of Campina Grande and João Pessoa and; 3) primary data, collected through a form sent to the municipal administrations of the two municipalities mentioned above. Among the main results, at a national level, the Northeast region leads the number and percentage of transfers in the period, followed by the Southeast region. In the same period, the Municipal Public Administration was the third most favored by transfers and the “health”, “education” and “social assistance” functions were the most benefited by the transfers made. In local terms, we have similarities between the cities of Campina Grande and João Pessoa, in terms of the years of greatest fundraising (2018, 2021 and 2022), the types of beneficiaries who received the most resources and the area for which the greatest part of this money is intended. The conclusions found include the low level of ability to raise funds in the two municipalities, which contrasts with the knowledge they claim to have about fundraising programs and the desire to establish partnerships, especially with academia, for implementation. sectors specializing in this topic.
