Developers and Politicians in the Institutionalizing of Development Regulation

Abstract

This chapter deals with the regulation of the development industry in the approval of real estate ventures. It presents the recent trajectory of the bureaucracy responsible for approval of real estate developments in the municipality of São Paulo and the creation of technical-administrative capacities induced by the real estate industry itself. The restructuring of the real estate approval agency with a decisive influence from developers resulted in more agile and predictable processes. The regulation of real estate developments involves tools that allow the analysis of compliance between the law and the project and enable proper registration in the formal case files. The chapter shows how the regulatory power is not merely a capacity stored within the scope of bureaucracies that are projected onto society, but a process emerging from the constant interactions between State and society.
