Minha Casa Minha Vida Program : analisis de la eficiencia relativa de los municipios brasilenos en la implementacion de programas federales

This research aims to evaluate the relative efficiency of Brazilian municipalities in the implementation of the Brazilian federal program for affordable housing Minha Casa Minha Vida (MCMV) program. The study discusses characteristics or factors that seem to affect municipal efficiency in policy implementation providing theoretical and empirical support to research in the area. The MCMV program is part of the Social and Urban Infrastructure axis of the Growth Acceleration Program (Programa de Aceleracao do Crescimento - PAC). The work was divided into two stages. The first step is the classification of municipalities into homogeneous groups. The second refers to the municipalities' relative efficiency in the MCMV, through the application of data envelopment analysis (DEA). As a result, we identified that Brazilian municipalities have different structuring patterns. The majority of them were classified as poorly structured or minimally structured. In the analyzed data, we observed a clear regional pattern, where South and Southeast have more well-structured municipalities compared to the Central-west, North, and Northeast. By analyzing the relative efficiency in MCMV, considering as universe only municipalities that completed MCMV projects between 2012 and 2016, better-structured municipalities also presented better results, indicating that structural conditions may be determinants of program performance. In contrast, the regional analysis presented that Centralwest, North, and Northeast demonstrated efficient municipalities more often, on average, in implementing the program.

A presente pesquisa busca avaliar a eficiencia relativa dos municipios brasileiros na execucao do programa Minha Casa Minha Vida. Pretende-se que os resultados deste trabalho permitam a discussao de quais caracteristicas ou fatores parecem afetar a eficiencia municipal na implementacao de politicas publicas, de forma a fornecer subsidios teorico-empiricos as pesquisas na area. O programa Minha Casa Minha Vida (MCMV), caso escolhido, compoe o eixo Infraestrutura Social e Urbana do Programa de Aceleracao do Crescimento (PAC). O trabalho foi estruturado em duas etapas: a primeira e a classificacao de municipios em grupos homogeneos; a segunda referese ao levantamento da eficiencia relativa dos municipios na implementacao do MCMV, por meio da aplicacao de Analise Envoltoria de Dados (DEA
