Tese (Doutorado em Ciências Sociais) - Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2022.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/48533The importance attributed to Local Arrangement Production (APL) as a possible mechanism for promoting development led the federal government and several state governments to encourage this type of economic conglomerate in Brazil, in the early 2000s, guiding the elaboration of public policies. In the Alagoas state, one of the recipients, in 2004, the Local Productive Arrangements Program (PAPL) was created, which supported arrangement production in many places. As a result of this action, two production arrangements in the Baixo São Francisco region received support, namely: the fish farming APL “Delta do São Francisco”; and the tourism APL “Caminhos do São Francisco”. The objective of this research, considering the importance of these arrangements, was to evaluate the degrees of effectiveness of the actions directed to the general coordination of the PAPL, as well as the actions of institutional strengthening of the actors as the planning, the monitoring and the evaluation of the results in the Delta do São Francisco and Caminhos do São Francisco APLs in the Lower São Francisco planning region of Alagoas, from 2013 to 2016, in order to identify whether this policy actually reached people in the sense of promoting changes in the target population. Therefore, the following specific objectives were established: to understand the process of implementation and the performance of the PAPL; to assess the degrees of effectiveness in the actions aimed at the general coordination of the program, in the institutional articulation of actors and planning actions, with the monitoring and evaluation of the results of the arrangements; and verify the results of these actions in the productive arrangements of fish farming and tourism in the region in question. The methodological process used to carry out the research objectives included a literature review; the elaboration of a matrix to evaluate the effectiveness of the PAPL; documentary research; and a collection of primary data, carried out through field research in the municipalities of the researched region. The results showed that the actions evaluated were effective because they were implemented, but they did not promoted a transformation in the reality of PAPL benefited in the municipalities surveyed, they were not very effective.Acesso AbertoArranjos produtivos locaisPolíticas públicasDesenvolvimento como expansão das capacidades individuaisEfetividadedoctoralThesis
