Abstract

France adopted the model of executive governance in a hierarchical and pyramidal way (Unitary Executive), influencing the Brazilian separation of powers system and the performance of the President. The United States of America was structured in the form of a federation, inspiring Brazilian republican (1891). The US bureaucracy was structured through independent agencies external to the Executive Branch, forming the Administrative State. This article intends to investigate the emergence and evolution of the US Administrative State model and whether this model had influence or not in the Brazilian bureaucracy.
