Abstract

The present study is an exercise of public policy analysis, having as it outlines the moment of the political cycle and the resignation on the decision agenda. The main objective of the dissertation is to analyze how the Postgraduate Student Agreement Program (PEC-PG) relates to the movements of internationalization of Higher Education, based on policy analysis. Therefore, the methodological approach built for the present study is related to the qualitative approach, centered on considering the perspective of descriptive research. Kingdon's Multiple Flow Model is used as an analytical framework. Among the main considerations of the study, it is observed that the flow of problems demonstrates relevant information about the problem of internationalization of Higher Education in Brazil, as well as its tensions in relation to objectives aimed at South-South cooperation. In relation to the flow of alternatives, it is noticeable in the categories of values involved and technical feasibility, which permeates the issues related to the internationalization of higher education in the globalized world. The political flow, in turn, stands out for identifying times when the internationalization of Higher Education was being evidenced worldwide, but mainly, in the needs of Brazil and developing countries. From the coupling of the three flows, it is clear that the problem was evident, having technical feasibilities and favorable national humor that favored the entry of the PEC-PG Program into the agenda setting.
