The advent of New Public Management introduced the concept of project management until then exclusive to the private sector, paving the way for increased state efficiency. In this scenario, this article aims to locate, synthesize, and identify the theoretical proximity among studies on project management in the public context. The bibliometric methodological approach used relational analysis of citations and the methods of cocitation and coupling to reveal the connections among the studies published. Exploratory factor analysis of cocitation and coupling led to six factors, indicating the intellectual structure, and enabling the generation of a factor integration framework from the most frequent citations. The results indicated the prevalence of studies on project management and e-government competencies. It also amplifies discussions with the presentation of an agenda directed explicitly to the management of public projects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this article is to map the national decentralization stage of financial resources from the federal government to Brazilian districts by voluntary transfers, by means of ministerial programs and individual parliamentary amendments proposed by federal deputies. In order to do it, the documentary research method was used and official information sources had been accessed, which made it possible to build a database for analysis and interpretation. The results showed a heterogeneous distribution of financial resources among the Brazilian districts. In addition, the study still found that the approval rate of parliamentary amendments proposals was much higher than those formulated by ministerial programs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
