Abstract

O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir os caminhos da atuação estatal do Brasil desde Fernando Henrique Cardoso (FHC) até o governo Dilma Rousseff. A intenção não é esmiuçar o desempenho das contas públicas e sim perscrutar a orientação da política fiscal, o papel reservado ao Estado e os instrumentos de ação do setor público. O governo FHC adotou a visão liberal e o diagnóstico ortodoxo de que o deficit público era a causa da inflação. Criou um novo regime fiscal, baseado na redução do papel do Estado, no controle das finanças dos governos subnacionais e na subordinação da política fiscal à defesa da sustentabilidade da dívida pública. O governo Lula, mesmo sem mexer nas alterações institucionais do período anterior, mudou os rumos da atuação estatal em favor da defesa do desenvolvimento. A proposição inicial do governo Dilma deu sequência a essas medidas e buscou enfrentar antigos entraves ao crescimento. Na tentativa de recuperar a competitividade da indústria, ampliou os incentivos fiscais, bem como defendeu a redução da taxa de juros, o aumento dos gastos em infraestrutura e alterações no sistema tributário. The goal of the chapter is to discuss the ways of state action in Brazil since Fernando Henrique Cardoso (FHC) to Dilma Rousseff. The intention is not to scrutinize the performance of public accounts but scrutinize the stance of fiscal policy, the role reserved to the State and the instruments of action of the public sector. The Cardoso government adopted the liberal view and the diagnosis that the public deficit was the cause of inflation. FHC’s government created a new fiscal regime, based on the reduction of the state’s role, control of the finances of subnational governments and the subordination of fiscal policy on protection of the public debt sustainability. The Lula government, even without moving the institutional changes from the previous period, changed the course of State action in favor of the defense of development. The initial proposition of Dilma’s government followed the measures and sought to tackle old barriers to growth. In search of retrieve the competitiveness of industry, expanded tax incentives, defended the reduction of interest rates, increased infrastructure spending and tried to change the tax system.
