This book is about the courageous decision taken by the Government
of a Ceara, Brazil, to tackle the painful economic and social
conflict caused by the enormous gap between rich and poor. Instead
of confining their attempts to easy solutions like transfer
payments, the Governor of the State, Tasso Ribeiro Jereissati,
decided in 2001 to cut straight into the roots of the problem,
aiming to develop a genuine understanding of the conflict between
growth and distribution, and thereby provide real, long-term
solutions to the state's problems. Pedro Sisnando Leite, then
Secretary of Rural Development, led this effort together with other
state secretaries, particularly Monica Clark Nunes Cavalcante,
Carlos Matos Lima and Alex Araujo.The book presents the results of
a unique harmonic integration between academic research, public
policy elaboration, and concrete implementation of public measures.
The policies devised, implemented and evaluated in this book are
focused on potential solutions to this market failure, at both the
regional level and the local level. Studied and endorsed by many
academics and policy makers around the world, the model of Ceara
provides a unique and exemplary solution to conflict and
inequality.
