Heterogeneities of State Social Isolation Policies in front of Covid-19: analysis of political and technical-administrative aspects

This project aims to analyze the leadership of Brazilian state governments in the implementation of social isolation policies to face the dissemination of Covid-19. The project is based on the assumption that, despite the existence of this leadership, the policies of social isolation are not homogeneous, with a certain degree of asymmetry in the rigidity of restrictions on the functioning of trade and activities with the potential to gather people. In light of this, we triggered debates on public policy decision-making, state capacity and federalism to investigate whether political or technical-administrative factors influence the nature and effectiveness of these policies at the state level. We use the following methodological procedures: content analysis of state regulations; mapping the political-party alignment of state governors to the President of the Republic; analysis of the medical and hospital resources of each unit of the federation, of the accumulated cases and of the deaths caused by Covid-19 based on the National Register of Health Establishments (CNES). As a result, we intend to build typologies of social isolation policies by unit of the federation and present data that show the evolution of these policies, their effectiveness and the political and technical-administrative influences for variation over time. We also intend to assess the capacity of inter-federative coordination from the federal government in the context of adopting state public policies of social isolation. analysis of the medical and hospital resources of each unit of the federation, of the accumulated cases and of the deaths caused by Covid-19 based on the National Register of Health Establishments (CNES).
