This paper discusses the political and institutional factors that shaped the emergence and consolidation of a universal health system (SUS) in Brazil after the country's transition to democracy in the late 1980s. It argues that a combination of political incentives and political, fiscal and institutional capacities are responsible for the creation of the system.
