Abstract
Este trabalho discute o papel do Mercosul enquanto espaço catalisador de processos de disseminação de políticas públicas entre os países-membros. É adotada uma perspectiva comparada de análise, que leva em conta os trabalhos realizados por teóricos que abordam o fenômeno da disseminação no contexto da União Europeia. São apresentadas tipologias elaboradas por esses autores e que classificam a disseminação de políticas públicas pelo grau de fidelidade à política pública original. Chegou-se à conclusão de que os órgãos temáticos do Mercosul constituem-se como espaços que propiciam a troca de experiências e de ideias, possibilitando processos de disseminação, ainda que nas modalidades mais "fracas". PALAVRAS-CHAVE Mercosul, disseminação, difusão, transferência, políticas públicas. ABSTRACT This paper discusses the role of Mercosur as a catalysing agent for policy dissemination among member-states. A comparative perspective was adopted, taking into account the works of scholars who have studied policy dissemination in the European context. A categorization typology, created by such scholars, separates and classifies policy dissemination processes by their fidelity to the original source. It was possible to conclude that Mercosur’s many thematic departments can be considered as chambers that allow for the exchange of experiences and ideas, resulting indeed in policy dissemination processes, even if they fall in the “weak” categories. KEYWORDS Mercosur, dissemination, policy transfer, policy diffusion, public policy.
