Abstract

This article analyzes Brazilian state capacities in the management of youth policy from 2003 to 2014. We developed a qualitative research based on documentary analysis. We verified that low levels of state capacity, measured by the path of institutionalization, interinstitutional coordination and inclusive capacity, explain the obstacles in the management of the main program for youth, Projovem. These factors caused effects in terms of implementation due to interinstitutional forces correlations, differentiated levels of management capacity of federated entities and disarticulation of the decision-making structures with participatory processes.
