Abstract

The research presented in this article analyses the influence of Neoliberal School on the Brazilian Legislative Branch throughout the State administrative reform within the government of former-president Fernando Henrique Cardoso, which headed both the addition of “efficiency” in the article 37 of the Brazilian Constitution of 1988 as a principle, in 1995, and the passing of the Public-Private Partnerships Act, in 2004. Thus, it is demonstrated the neoliberal speech forged in such act and the huge benefits it provides to the private partners, based on the non-compliance of the Brazilian Economic Constitution as well as on the disrespect of the public and social interest.
