Minha Casa Minha Vida - Entities: New arrangments for the operations of Brazilian housing policy

Abstract

Recent analyzes on the modality "Entities" of the Minha Casa Minha Vida program suggest that the market practices that the program activates and to which it is submitted imply changes and a set of reframings relative to the program operation. Observing projects located in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo, there are specific aspects of the program's operational devices that stand out: the system of accreditation and qualification of the organizing entities, the system of accreditation of the beneficiary families and the system of counterparts. These aspects allow us to see that, despite being modulates from the territories in which they are inserted, the issues located in the articulation between the levels of conception of the program, the agencies around its operationalization, and its implementation in the territory, designate broader formulations with strong links with the context of operationalization and financialization of public policies.
