RESUMO

In the 90 , when Brazil was retaking its land refonn, it was built a program complementary to the constitutional mode!. By using market mechanisms to make the access to land ownership speedier, the main goal ofthe Cédula da Terra Program (PCT) was to benefit 15.000 low income families leaving in the Brazilian northeast region countryside. Based on its characteristics the PCT can be classified as a market agrarian refonn programo The Market Assisted Land Refonn also known as traditional agrarian refonn, carne as an altemative to the agrarian refonn model based on expropriation methods, by evidencing a belief of having means to speed up land redistribution. In spite of the theoretical elaboration having as its source the criticism to the traditional model, the market assisted land refonn had its perfonnance hardly criticized mainly by those researchers supporting the traditional mode!. The experience of intemational programs using the same method as RAM s brought some lessons as for its results. In the Brazilian case, the PCT was created by joining several mechanisms to allow an efficient govemance structure. The objective of the study is to analyze the main Cédula da Terra Program components (selection process, associativism, land acquisition process) and mainly to demonstrate that some expectations about program results did not happen as planned. Based on studies developed by researchers from the State University of Campinas the analysis demonstrated that the program rules were not properly followed. This is an indication that the program s govemance structures did not succeed in overcoming local specificities
