Abstract

The public governance, being seen as a new paradigm of public management, assumes certain prominent role being positioned as a practice facilitation of exchange of information between government and society within the constitutional principles and the precepts of the Law, so that they become a link for the occurrence of the debate between the two categories. We also propose an interdisciplinary reflection between Law and Public Administration, on the factors that should be progressed and respected as provided in the Brazilian legal Municipalities, as is the case in our study. The results of the study show that although efforts have been made to promote public transparency, the lack of harmony between the various government instruments is still a reality, due to numerous failures, offering incomplete information due to noncompliance Laws . There is the citizen who should strive to translate and understand the Law of public information, but the government who should care for the citizens and provide information tailored to your needs.
