Resumo
The recent experience of the local level of government in Brazil is characterized by the presence of innovations in the field of management and public policies. The analysis of this experience makes it possible to identify issues relevant for the field of local government studies. Some of these issues have already been integrated in the literature but some of them have not been explored yet. The goal of this article is to identify areas of study that comes from the analysis of policies and programs promoted recently by local government. These areas include: gender, employment and income, environment management, rationality in public expenditure, accountability and new institutional arrangements. But, the lack of policies and the government absence in some areas also points to some relevant issues. Among these areas where the governmental action remains fragile are race and youth. The Brazilian executivist tradition – which identifies government with the executive branch – is responsible for another area very poor on innovations: there is a lack of innovative initiatives led by the legislative level.
