Summary: Public policies occur in pluralistic environments because the implementation of
initiatives depends on different actors with interests and objectives, sometimes
conflicting. Such differences are motivated by the fact that the parties act according to
their own or shared institutional logic. In this sense, the conflict between institutional
logics enhances an institutional complexity, which can be divided into organizational
complexity and environmental complexity. The implications of institutional complexity,
among them, the sharing of power by stakeholders in public policy make its effective
implementation a challenge to government managers. Based on this context, it is
examined how the institutional complexity, based on the institutional logics of each
actor involved, influences the effectiveness of a brazilian public housing policy. The
focus is on public housing policy named Programa Minha Casa Minha Vida (PMCMV).
It is a qualitative and descriptive research characterized by a multiple case study. Data
were collected from interviews, participant observation and documents. The findings
highlight the preponderance of seven institutional logics: 1) state as provider of
housing, 2) political-governmental, 3) quality of the ventures, 4) banking-commercial, 5)
best financial return, 6) social right, e 7) greatest efficiency between expenditure and
political image. Conclusions have demonstrated the need for additional mechanisms to
keep actors tied to the common objectives of the public policy in question. On the other
hand, it was verified that the performance of these actors is directly related to their
private interests, which translates into worse housing and living conditions for the
beneficiary families, with negative impacts on PMCMV results. Finally, improvement
actions are suggested, based on the results identified.
