Trabalho análogo ao de escravo: análise comparativa do Projeto Ação Integrada nos estados de Mato Grosso e Bahia (2009-2019)

Abstract

This work comparatively analyzes the public policy to combat slave-like labor, focusing on assisting victims of slave-like labor and of an assistance-preventive nature, the Projeto Ação Integrada - PAI, implemented in the states of Mato Grosso and Bahia. It is urgent to analyze public policies that contribute to the fight against slave labor in the country, from its formulation to its results, in order to understand how this crime is fought and which actors are present or absent in this process. In order to do so,a quantitative methodology of temporal analysis of the data and the analysis of public policy through Policy Cycle were used, via primary and secondary data to understand the situation of labor analogous to slavery in the country and in these states and how this public policy contributed to breaking the cycle of work analogous to slavery. The study showed that the PAI/MT and PAI/BA were not effective and have several problems and bottlenecks since their formulation, implementation and evaluation. It was found that the strategies adopted proved to be insufficient or poorly executed, which negatively impacted the results. It was observed that the Integrated Action Project was not successful in breaking the cycle of labour analogous to that of slavery.
