THE TRANSFORMATIONS OF THE BRAZILIAN PUBLIC SPHERE

The book "The Transformations of the Brazilian Public Sphere in the Patrimonialist and Bureaucratic Periods: The Reasons for the Autonomy of Regulatory Agencies", by Aline Moura da Silva Boanova, carries out an in-depth analysis of the evolution of the Brazilian state based on Max Weber's theory of domination and the classics of national political and social thought, such as Sérgio Buarque de Holanda and Raymundo Faoro. The book investigates the patrimonial and authoritarian roots that have marked public administration in Brazil since the colonial period, through the Empire, the Old Republic and interventionist regimes, to contemporary bureaucracy, discussing the cultural and institutional legacies that hinder the consolidation of a rational-legal public sphere. The text seeks to understand, in this context, the foundations that explain the autonomy of regulatory agencies, inserted in a state historically resistant to impersonality and administrative rationalization.
