Abstract

This work aimed to evaluate the actions taken by the municipal public administration of Cascavel to effectively comply with the Law on Access to Information - LAI (Law 12,527 / 2011), regarding active and passive transparency, under a Contingency Theory approach. This study was classified as descriptive, case-study and qualitative, using semi-structured interviews. In addition, the LAI Social Questionnaire (TCE / PR, 2014) published by this Court was used as the basis. The municipality of Cascavel does not fulfill an LAI, is classified in 35º of 69 municipalities of the ranking, presenting a degree of transparency of 28.02%. The Contingency Theory was used to observe its influence on the implementation of LAI. It was observed that the contingency factors, strategy and technology, are more evident in the development of the law. However, it is necessary to observe a reality of each municipality, which seeks a balance between variables, but that is essential for the variables of strategy and strategy.
