Abstract

Public Governance - Gov.P, according to the Court of Auditors of the Union of Brazil, is a system that determines the balance of power between multiple agents to solve complex problems and guarantee the prevalence of the common good, acting through
mechanisms of leadership, strategy and control. It is a construct widely discussed in the literature, with strong social implications. The aim of this paper is to describe the profile of the most cited publications (n=1,972) in the historical series on Gov.P. For that, a descriptive study was carried out, with a quali-quantitative approach of the bibliometric review type. The results achieved the proposed objective and revealed the importance of the theme “democratic
processes” and the centrality of the theme “political stability”.
