“…This reasoning This reasoning resembles Jensen and Meckling's (1976) concept of agency relationship, considering that civil society can be seen as the civil society can be seen as the principal and the state as the agent. The decisions made by decisions made by bureaucrats consist of public choices, which basically deal with the de nition of which public goods which public goods should be produced and in what quantity (Silva, 1996). Przeworski (2003) analyzes that three types of agency relationships should be considered: between the state and private economic agents; between citizens and politicians; and between politicians and the public machine, that is, the bureaucracy.…”

There is no reason to believe that the behavior of individuals regarding public decisions will be fundamentally different from the behavior observed in particular choices.…”

This article aims to identify the effects of mid-level bureaucrat's allocation in the intermediation of relations between the main authority of a city's executive branch and the city's secretariat, considering the principal-agent relationship in public administration. The study interviewed analysts responsible for goal and project management who mediate the agency relationship between the Chief of Staff and the executive bodies implementing projects put forward by Rio de Janeiro's City Hall, in order to examine the effects of the analysts' intermediation in terms of reducing agency problems. The agency problems referred to in the article are due to public administration's hierarchical structure, resulting from the differences in motivation and goals of the actors, information asymmetries, risk propensity and different planning horizon. Results show this intermediation is positive to reduce agency problems, impacting in terms of difference in motivation and information asymmetries. Keywords: agency problem; city management; information asymmetry; public administration; mid-level bureaucrats. Problemas de agência no setor público: o papel dos intermediadores da relação entre poder central e unidades executorasEste trabalho visa identificar o efeito da alocação de indivíduos, definidos na literatura como burocratas de médio escalão, na intermediação das relações entre a direção superior do Poder Executivo e as secretarias de Estado na relação principal-agente no âmbito da administração pública. Com base em entrevistas em profundidade com analistas de gerenciamento de projetos e metas, intermediadores da relação de agência entre a Casa Civil e unidades executoras de projetos da Prefeitura do Rio de Janeiro, foram examinados os efeitos de sua intermediação sobre os problemas de agência na estrutura hierárquica da administração pública decorrentes de diferenças de motivações e objetivos entre as partes, assimetrias de informação, propensões ao risco e distintos horizontes de planejamento. Os resultados mostraram os benefícios dessa intermediação para reduzir os problemas de agência, com efeitos sobre as diferenças de motivações e assimetrias de informação.

48RESUMO As demandas exigindo a melhoria da produtividade em faculdades e universidades estão surgindo dramática e rapidamente no Brasil. Muitos estudos têm sugerido sistemas de avaliação e critérios externos para controlar a produção universitária em termos quantitativos e qualitativos. Considerando-se que as universidades e faculdades não são organizações com fins lucrativos (excetuando-se, é claro, as caça-níqueis), as variáveis microeconômicas e administrativas tradicionais usadas para medir a eficiência não possuem nenhuma função direta. Nesse sentido, dever-se-ia criar um sistema de controle "à la" mercado (imitando o mercado) para avaliar a produção em universidades e faculdades. O orçamento e o mecanismo de alocação de recursos contido nele podem ser usados como instrumentos de incentivo para melhorar a qualidade e a produtividade. Esse será o principal tema deste artigo. ABSTRACTThe calls for colleges and universities to improve their productivity are coming thick and fast in Brazil. Many studies are suggesting evaluation systems and external criteria to control the quality of teaching and research in universities. Since universities and colleges are not profit-oriented organizations (considering only the legitimate and serious research and teaching organizations, of course), the traditional microeconomics and administrative variables used to measure efficiency do not have any direct function. An alternative would be to create an "as if" market control system to evaluate performance in universities and colleges. Internal budget and resources allocation mechanism can be used as incentive instruments to improve quality and productivity. It will be the main issue of this article. PALAVRAS-CHAVEQualidade da educação, avaliação de universidades, elaboração de orçamentos, alocação de recursos públicos, incentivos.
