In Brazil, studies have shown that the institutionalization of policies largely driven by socio-state interactions has contributed to both the development of state capacities and the expansion of opportunities for action for the social actors involved in these processes. The analysis of public policies involving processes where the state and civil society mutually shape each other has allowed the literature to identify specific types of state capacities that may emerge from these interactions. Building on these insights, this research line aims to deepen our understanding of a still underexplored phenomenon that requires clearer conceptualization: the institutionalization of socio-state capacities and its impacts on policy formulation and stability.
