| Abstract | This dissertation aims at listing and analyzing the main repertoires employed by the environmental movement to influence policy-making in Brazil and in the United States, two presidential democracies. The research reached the conclusion that environmental groups are able to effectively influence the making, the approval, and the implementation of environmental legislation in both countries. In Brazil, a higher effectiveness was noted in transforming field projects in policy. In the U.S., green groups’ best performance was perceived in lobbying and in mobilizing citizens to influence decision-making. In both countries the presence of decisionmakers that are sensitive to the environmental cause, especially in the Executive branch, was seen as essential to the success of the environmental movement in influencing policy. Additionally, the high levels of professionalization and the scientific expertise in the environmental NGOs, in Brazil and in the U.S., were seen as key to legitimize the environmental groups as important actors in the political process. |
