Descripción
Sumario:The present article aims to present the characteristics of the process of creation of Access to Public Information Laws in Brazil and Mexico, whose cultures present traces of opacity due to phenomena such as caciquism and patrimonialism. Through bibliographical research and interviews, a comparison is made of the controversies that involve civil society in the insertion of the issue on the government’s agenda. First, the experience of the Oaxaca group in Mexico is shown, followed by the mobilization of organizations in the Forum on the Right of Access to Public Information in Brazil. It is possible to perceive the multidimensionality of the challenges that permeate the culture of both Latin American realities for the implementation of State transparency measures.
