Abstract
Resumo Este artigo apresenta variáveis socioeconômicas determinantes para a transparência pública passiva nos municípios brasileiros a partir da Escala Brasil Transparente (EBT). Por meio de amostra aleatória, formada por 1.133 municípios, as análises bivariadas e multivariadas revelaram correlação significativa entre a transparência pública passiva e as variáveis escolaridade da população, receita per capita e idade da população, e esta última apresentou resultado inverso ao esperado. Os resultados descritivos revelaram o baixo índice de transparência pública passiva nos municípios brasileiros que obtiveram uma média de nota de apenas 1,93 (em escala entre 0 e 10). Além dos achados estatísticos, o estudo contribui para expor a diferenciação entre transparência pública ativa e passiva, onde foram apresentadas as características representativas de cada tipo.
