Brazil is a country of continental proportions whose gross domestic
product is unevenly distributed among its various regions. The
impact of general domestic economic policies has often been
perceived as not being regionally neutral, but as reinforcing the
geographic concentration of economic activities. This detailed book
examines the regional impact of such general policies as:
industrialization, agricultural modernization, privatization,
stabilization, science and technology, labor, and foreign direct
investment. Written by recognized and respected scholars, this book
fills a significant gap in the current literature on regional
development in Brazil. Researchers and students in economics,
economic history, political science and regional studies, and
others interested in the economics of transition to a market system
will find this comprehensive collection an invaluable resource.
