ARAUJO, André Leite. Committees and international treaties: the case of the accession of Venezuela in the Brazilian Congress. []. , 250, pp.194-219.   31--2024. ISSN 0003-2573.  https://doi.org/10.31447/202109.

The article assesses what determines the role played by legislators in committees when analysing international treaties. Employing Qualitative Comparative Analysis with an original dataset, the investigation covers the case of the Protocol of Accession of Venezuela to the Southern Common Market and the period in which it passed through the Brazilian National Congress. We find that belonging or not to the ruling coalition upstages other confounders.
