The purpose of this article was to identify the magnitude and direction of budget expenditures with the sport at the federal level, discussing the options that have guided the policies produced for the sector. The research was based on literature review and documentary research, relying mainly on survey data on budget execution for the period 2001-2012, providing a general understanding of the continuities and discontinuities of the financing policy of the sport in Brazil since Cardoso government to Dilma government. The analysis included moments of discussion around the evolution of the sport, the constraints imposed by fiscal policy to its implementation and targeting of spending budget. The main results: the high infrastructure spending, pressured by congressional amendments, was a constant; the creation of the Ministry of Sports in 2003 caused a significant rise in spending on management; spending on mega events began in 2006-2007, in the context of improving the country’s external accounts and easing of macroeconomic policies, where the subject of growth gained importance in the government agenda; although the schedule of mega events has ensured increased sport participation in the budget, direct expenditures decreased with sport. It was concluded that the sports budget, the Cardoso government, through the financing of policies aimed at the experience of the sport as well as for the construction of sports infrastructure in the country, was more connected to an integrating function, from the Lula government and , act still in the Dilma government, started to behave more clearly a direct economic role, seeking to create the general conditions for production and realization of sporting mega events.Downloads
