Social justice and sustainable regional development: reflections on discourse and practice in public policies and public budget

Author

Listed:
  • Vitor Vieira Vasconcelos

    (Universidade Federal do ABC , Brazil)

Abstract

Considerations are presented on discourses and practices of public policies and public budget, regarding territorial development. The considerations are based on the author's experience in government institutions, at state and national level, in the executive and legislative powers in Brazil. This experience is compared to theoretical and applied studies on sustainable regional development, including agrarian reform, small-scale farming, ecological-economic zoning, transport infrastructure, city network hierarchies, and budgetary policies. The discussion shows how, behind discourses of regional development, there may be strategies for maintaining political power which may not always be the most appropriate for improving people's quality of life.
