Abstract

O trabalho tem como ponto de partida o quase consenso existente na literatura sobre o Legislativo no Brasil, particularmente na Câmara dos Deputados, segundo o qual faltariam regras e procedimentos capazes de incentivar o desenvolvimento de expertise e capacitação dos parlamentares para a formulação de políticas públicas. Em outras palavras, o Congresso ainda estaria por desenvolver mecanismos informacionais no seu modo de atuar. O argumento contido neste estudo contraria em alguma medida este diagnóstico, ao propor que é possível detectar no interior da Câmara dos Deputados núcleos de excelência, a princípio capacitados ao exercício de funções de cunho informacional – a saber, suas comissões técnicas permanentes e a estrutura de assessoria da Câmara; e, dentro desta, destacando-se a Consultoria Legislativa (Conle). A pesquisa examina especificamente o segundo mecanismo, a estrutura de assessoria da Câmara, propondo hipóteses sobre as condições em que o seu potencial informativo é ativado, estabelecendo uma dinâmica informacional em seu modo de atuar e em sua interação com o plenário. The work has as its starting point the near consensus in the literature about the Brazilian Congress, particularly on the Chamber of Deputies, according to which rules and procedures inside this institution do not present effective incentives for the development of expertise and legislators training for the formulation of complex public policies. In other words, Congress would still lack informational mechanisms in its decision making process. The argument contained in the study somehow contradicts this diagnosis, by proposing that it is possible to detect, within the Chamber of Deputies, nucleus of excellence in principle empowered to exercise functions of informational nature – i.e., their permanent technical committees and the advisory structure of the Chamber; and, within this, highlighting the Legislative Consulting (Conle). The research examines specifically the second mechanism, the structure of the Chamber’s advisory board, proposing hypotheses about the conditions under which its informative potential is activated by establishing an informational dynamic in their way of acting and in its interaction with the floor.
