“…Decisões tomadas no nível federal, como renúncia tributária, autorizações excessivas para operações de crédito e elevação das atribuições dos governos subnacionais, desequilibram as relações entre os entes da federação, proporcionando, muitas vezes, resultados regionalmente insatisfatórios na alocação de recursos, bens e serviços públicos (Serra & Afonso, 2007;Rezende, 2010;Monteiro Neto, 2014). Por isso, a atuação conjunta (vertical e horizontalmente) cooperativa entre diferentes governos pode reduzir efeitos adversos de políticas tomadas isoladamente, aproveitando a sinergia estabelecida entre esses governos (Ter-Minassian & Mello, 2016).…”

O FPM é uma transferência incondicional e redistributiva recebida pelos municípios e oriunda da União. Seus critérios de rateio de recursos apresentam inconsistências que geram uma distribuição pouco equânime dos recursos do fundo. Usando o instrumental matemático da lógica fuzzy, este artigo verificou a relação entre a distribuição do FPM e o nível de necessidade fiscal dos municípios de Minas Gerais entre 2000 e 2010. Constatou-se que a maior parte dos municípios recebe recursos aquém do necessário e que este problema tende a ser maior nas cidades mais populosas. Os resultados corroboram outras evidências em torno da divisão distorcida do FPM e reforçam a necessidade de revisão de seus critérios.

“…Intergovernmental state structure Brazilian federalism was defined at the onset of democratization by the 1988 Constitution that shifted power and resources to the municipal level. Municipalities have a constitutional status and are not subordinated to other government levels (Souza, 2015;Tavares de Almeida, 2006;Ter-Minassian & Mello, 2016). Brazilian federalism has a high degree of political, functional and fiscal decentralization compared to other countries, which bestows a high degree of autonomy on the municipalities.…”

The idea of the smart city, with its promise to address the swiftly accruing societal challenges in cities through the use of technology, has over the past decade increasingly gained in popularity and appeal. Local governments have consequently taken to incorporating smart city approaches into their development strategies (Camboim, Zawislak, & Pufal, 2019;Caragliu & Del Bo, 2019). The smart city theme has also generated interest among academics, resulting in a rapidly growing body of literature accompanied by conferences, organisations, articles, and special issues. The literature presents a cacophony of perspectives on the smart city, among which two major streams stand out: the technology-driven smart city and the human smart city.The first focuses on technology-and data-driven urban management steered by governments, often in alliance with corporations, aimed at creating smarter cities for inhabitants Kourtit, Nijkamp, & Steenbruggen, 2017;. A prominent example is the South-Korean "smart city'' of Songdo, built completely from scratch. A ubiquitous computing environment is achieved through the extensive integration of information technologies to provide state-of-the-art urban supervision Shelton, Zook, & Wiig, 2015;. Computerization can also be implanted in existing cities.For instance, Singapore has established a solid technology base to optimise urban infrastructures and public services: it has a widespread data-driven sensor network for transport and energy, a fibreoptic network the length and width of the island, robot hospitals, autonomous -driverless -taxis, as well as vertical gardens and farms that regulate the temperature by absorbing and diffusing heat while collecting rainwater (Anthopoulos, Janssen,

There is a growing empirical literature on the effects of the global financial and economic crisis on intergovernmental relations. This paper contributes to this literature by focusing on conventional budgetary aggregates and institutional indicators of subnational authority in policymaking and fiscalfinancial management. The empirical analysis is carried out for a large set of advanced and emergingmarket/developing economies between 1990 and 2015 and shows that the crisis has been associated with an increase in the subnational shares of general government spending and revenue. The findings for subnational authority over policy and fiscal-financial management are more nuanced and suggest that increases in government indebtedness (spending) since the crisis have been associated with greater (weaker) subnational authority. It is possible that the need to deliver debt reductions through medium-term fiscal consolidation calls for greater intergovernmental coordination, which enhances the bargaining power of the subnational jurisdictions to broaden their prerogatives in fiscal matters and influence national policymaking.
