Abstract

Examinamos como as ONGs ambientais, mesmo com recursos escassos (votos e contribuições financeiras), conseguem influenciar de forma efetiva a política ambiental no Brasil. A inovação do trabalho consiste em utilizar a abordagem de agência comum e suas aplicações em economia política para modelar a ação ambientalista no Brasil. O principal resultado teórico é que as ONGs ambientais afetam a política ambiental através da informação, revelando aos eleitores informações a respeito da ação do governo. Os principais resultados empíricos são a mensuração do impacto dos produtores rurais, das ONGs ambientais e da mídia sobre a política ambiental no Brasil.
