Resumen
This study focuses on the role of the Brazilian Congress in the programmatic and geographic distribution of public expenditures between 1947 and 1964. Relying on the Diario do Congresso Nacional, a mail survery of ex-deputies, extensive interviews with deputies in various states and other historical documents, two models are developed and tested. The first model, predicting which deputies will be more active in seeking central government expenditures for their redutos, stresses such factors as vote concentration, insecurity of tenure, and party membership. The second model, predicting which states will be more successful in attracting central government spending, includes committee membership, delegation turnover, linkages to central government ministers, leadership in the Chamber and deputies' occupational backgrounds. The relative effects of Presidential versus Congressional elections are also discussed. Finally, a series of states are considered in a section on deviant cases.
