| Sumario: | The Brazilian electricity sector underwent a series of reforms and restructurings during the 1990s. This movement marked a complex relationship in the redefinition of State performance, especially those practiced in the electric sector.

The discussion, however modest, of these questions is our purpose in this article. |
