This essay aims seeks to broaden the debate on the incorporation of the theme Entrepreneurship in the Public Sector (EPS) through the literature review on the reflective character to be taken to transpose concepts from the private sector to the public sector. It was understood that needs a critical discussion on the process of appropriating that theme in Brazil. It was observed that the Brazilian Public Administration is marked by a hybrid model of administration, in which patrimonial practices, bureaucratic and managerial coexist, making the complex adaptation of entrepreneurship. Therefore, we must be wary of exaggerated expectations regarding this theme in Brazilian Public Administration, as have several limitations that meet the sustainability of democratic governments.
