Gestão pública municipal: uma ênfase nas capacidades governativas em Curuá - Pará

Abstract

The final research study addresses the historical occupation and municipal public management of Curuá, a municipality located in the state of Pará. The municipality was founded by the Baré mission in 1694, underwent a second phase of settlement in 1848, and was officially created as a village in 1900, being emancipated as a municipality in 1995. The research aims to analyze the government capacities of public management in Curuá, addressing historical and institutional aspects and the variables of human resources, housing, transportation, agriculture, environment, disaster management and coping with COVID-19. The methodology used was mixed, combining quantitative research, with data from IBGE, and qualitative, with a bibliographic review. The structure of the work is divided into three chapters: the first presents the theory on public management and government capacities; the second discusses the historical and institutional formation of Curuá; and the third analyzes the government capacities of the municipality in the various areas mentioned. The study concludes that Curuá, despite being a small municipality with a restricted economy, has shown progress in its public management, with challenges to be overcome, especially in the areas of infrastructure and health, as evidenced by the COVID-19 pandemic.
