However, the multidimensional nature of the ‘state capacity’ construct implies a major research challenge for the scientific academy and a major management challenge for public managers. Theoretical framework: the creation of State Capacity Index (SCI) follows the same procedures as the Human Development Index (HDI). Method: the search for variables (proxies) that are pertinent to the Brazilian context and that empirically allow the measurement and operationalization of state capacity was carried out through extensive bibliographic research. Therefore, SCI allowed the general examination of the ‘state capacity’ construct. Results: the results are disparities in the municipal administrative structures of Minas Gerais. Conclusion: it is suggested the need for incentives and investments in the dimensions that cover the State Capacity Index, namely: administrative, political, and fiscal. 2023 artículo científico 1415-6555 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=84073372004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/840/84073372004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/840/84073372004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/840/84073372004/84073372004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/840/84073372004/movil 10.1590/1982-7849rac2022210135.en en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=840 RAC - Revista de Administração Contemporânea application/pdf Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Administração RAC - Revista de Administração Contemporânea (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.27
