Despite
discussions about Brazilian public policies of tourism (PPoT), their evolution
and impacts in this country are still little known. By assimilating various
roles over the last century, Brazilian governments could establish goals and
provide different expectations about PPoT. This study aims to analyze the
institutionalization process of Brazilian PPoT, from their born, in the very
beginning of the last century (1930), to the first decade in the actual century
(2010). To reach this objective, the Brazilian public agenda of tourism was
reconstituted, in a retroductive way. The specialized literature –about public
policies, in general, and PPoT, in particular– was mad in order to produce an
analytical framework to support the empirical analysis. The historical,
longitudinal, ex post facto, research was empirically landed by the data
collection of normative acts did by the Brazilian Federal Government. These
acts were considered as public policies and they were collected through the
historical archive of the House of Representatives. They were analyzed, in a
quantitative and qualitative manner, by the content analysis technique. The
results allow us to recognize five major periods guiding the PPoT in Brazil
agenda, each one having it proper organizing principle, modus operandi as well
its expected effects. As conclusion, we can sustain the existence of recurrent
institutional inconsistency; increased investments and changing expectations
over the PPoT along of the last century. There was also recent change in the
profile of these policies, seeking to conform them to the international
standard.
