This volume grew out of a conference series sponsored jointly by
the Stanford-Berkeley Joint Center for Latin American Studies and
the Instituto Universitario de Pesquisas do Rio de Janeiro
(IUPERJ). Entitled "Opportunities and Constraints in Peripheral
Industrial Society: The Case of Brazil," the first conference was
held in Nova Friburgo in July 1983 and was followed up by another
at Berkeley in late January 1984. In the course of our discussions,
the subject matter widened so that a new title was chosen for this
book. Also,in the interim, as Brazil made the transition to
democracy and returned to economic growth, many topics on the
agenda for the 1980s emerged in clearer focus, so that the chapters
have all been sharpened and upgraded. In the division of labor that
produced this book, Nunes coordinated the project at Berkeley and
in Brazil, while Wirth and Bogenschild did the editing.
