  • Finanças Públicas do Município de São Paulo na República Velha (1889-1930)

    Open Access•Francisco Vidal Luna, Herbert S Kein•ARTICLE•História Econômica & História de…•2025

    Neste artigo, com base em extensa analise documental, estudamos as finanças públicas da cidade de São Paulo desde a implantação do regime republicano até 1930. O regime monárquico brasileiro era um estado unitário, com alto grau de centralização política e alguma autonomia administrativa local. O regime republicano, instaurado em 1889, optou por um regime descentralizado, que concedeu autonomia substancial aos estados e aos municípios. A capital …

  • Orçamentos da cidade de São Paulo

    Open Access•Francisco Vidal Luna, Herbert Klein•ARTICLE•História Econômica & História de…•2025

    O estudo analisa as finanças municipais de São Paulo entre 1889 e 1950 e baseia-se na análise detalhada da legislação e orçamentos municipais. Durante o Império, as Câmaras Municipais tinham pouca autonomia, sendo subordinadas às Assembleias Provinciais. Com a República, os municípios ganharam autonomia administrativa, mas continuaram dependentes das decisões estaduais para definir sua estrutura fiscal. A Revolução de 1930 trouxe grande intervenç…

  • Sugar and Coffee in São Paulo

    Open Access•Herbert S Kein, Francisco Vidal Luna•ARTICLE•Revista Brasileira de Estudos de…•2025

    This essay examines the impact of commercial sugar and coffee exports on household and family structures in two São Paulo's production centers in the second decade of the nineteenth century. Using manuscript household census records this study also explores how these economies shaped the color, sex, age, civil status, and legal standing of these two distinct populations. In 1829, Areias and Itu were at two different stages of their development in…

  • The Complex Evolution of Wheat Production in Brazil

    Open Access•Herbert S Kein, Francisco Vidal Luna•ARTICLE•Historia Agraria Revista de…•2024•Referencias: 3

    Although Brazil today is one of the world’s largest agricultural exporters and has the highest positive trade balance, it is still a net importer of wheat. Changes in consumption stemming from European migrants, who switched from cassava flour to wheat products in the late 19th century, led to mass importation of wheat. Brazilian governments in the mid-20th century subsidized the production and sale of wheat to reduce consumer prices, but product…

  • Orçamentos Da Cidade De São Paulo No Império

    Open Access•Francisco Vidal Luna, Herbert S Kein•ARTICLE•Almanack•2024•Referencias: 1

    A história das finanças públicas está relativamente bem desenvolvida na historiografia brasileira, entretanto a maioria das pesquisas concentrou-se nas finanças do governo central e nas atividades dos governos estaduais, com menor ênfase nas finanças municipais. Neste ensaio, estudamos a composição e evolução dos orçamentos da cidade de São Paulo, assim como a evolução de suas principais receitas e despesas durante o Império. Utilizamos duas font…

    Open Access•Francisco Vidal Luna, Herbert S Kein et al.•ARTICLE•História Econômica & História de…•2023

    Assim como em outros segmentos da agricultura brasileira, nos últimoscinquenta anos ocorreram transformações extraordinárias na pecuária. Atividadetradicional estabelecida no país desde o início da colonização, caracterizava-se atérecentemente pela criação extensiva e de baixa produtividade. Embora a pecuáriaargentina apresentasse características similares, no final do século XIX essa atividademodernizou-se na Argentina, mas o Brasil permaneceu u…

  • The emergence of Brazil as a major world sugar and ethanol producer

    Open Access•Herbert S Kein, Francisco Vidal Luna•ARTICLE•Economic History of Developing…•2023•Referencias: 2

    The production and export of sugar defined the colonial history of Brazil. It was here that the first modern slave based plantation system was created in America. Up through the end of the 17th century it was the dominant Atlantic producer of sugar. Although production continued to grow it was replaced in world markets in the 18th century by West Indian growers and was late to modernize in the 19th and early 20th century. Yet today it is once aga…

  • The Development of a Modern Cellulose Industry in South America

    Open Access•Herbert S Kein, Francisco Vidal Luna•ARTICLE•Latin American Research Review•2022

    Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay today account for well over a third of world exports of cellulose, yet this industry only came into existence in the late twentieth century. The evolution of this industry across the three countries is the object of this study. This nascent industry required direct government support in all three countries to be successful. Forestry laws and government investments in research, education, and factory construction were al…

  • The Impact of the Rise of Modern Maize Production in Brazil and Argentina

    Open Access•Herbert S Kein, Francisco Vidal Luna•ARTICLE•Historia Agraria Revista de…•2022•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 1

    Brazil and Argentina have emerged as leading maize producers and exporters in the past two decades. In both cases the modern maize industry is associated with the expansion of soybean production and has also had an impact on national meat production. We examine how this transformation of maize production occurred, how it evolved in different ways in these two countries and how it relates to changes in their general agricultural development

  • Dinâmica da atividade agrícola até meados do século XIX

    Open Access•Francisco Vidal Luna, Herbert Klein et al.•ARTICLE•Revista USP•2022

    Até o início do século XX a história do Brasil foi marcada pela dinâmica da atividade agrícola, tanto a grande lavoura exportadora, como a agropecuária voltada ao abastecimento do mercado interno, que se confundia com a atividade de subsistência. Embora o mercado internacional fosse o elemento dinâmico, os efeitos sobre as atividades não exportadoras são essenciais para explicar a história, ocupação e povoamento do território brasileiro. Neste ar…

As parcelas dos nascidos na África em relação aos escravizados e às razões de sexo de todos os cativos, de acordo com as idades, auxiliaram-nos a remontar a dinâmica retrospectiva da chegada dos africanos às regiões.

  • The Growth of the Soybean Frontier in South America

    Open Access•Herbert S Kein, Herbert S Klein et al.•ARTICLE•Revista de Historia Económica /…•2021•Citada por: 4•Referencias: 23

    In the past 50 years, South America has emerged as the dominant world producer of soybeans, a crop of no significance in the region before the middle of the 20 th century. As of the crop year 2019/2020, Brazil and Argentina produced 176 million tons which is over half of all world production and these two countries alone will also account for 57 per cent of all Soybeans exported in international trade. How this new agricultural product evolved in…

    A utilização do trabalho escravo na América esteve associada com a agricultura para exportação. Entretanto, não houve regime escravista no qual os escravos foram utilizados somente naqueles cultivos; mesmo nas áreas mais orientadas para a exportação, houve produção de gêneros alimentícios para consumo próprio e abastecimento do mercado local. Porém, em poucos casos essa atividade foi tão marcante como na economia escravista no Brasil, em especial…

  • Slavery in Brazil

    The current analysis of slave society in Brazil has involved a rethinking of the traditional plantation-dominated model, with a new stress on the wide dispersion of slaves among whites and non-whites and their involvement in a lively internal economy as well as in extractive industries. This general picture is confirmed in a detailed analysis of the economy and slavery practised in the two major provinces of Minas Gerais and São Paulo in the late…

    Today the Brazilian state of São Paulo is one of the world’s most advanced agricultural, industrial, and urbanized regions. Its historical evolution, however, is poorly understood. Most scholarly attention has been paid to the period after 1850, when coffee rose to economic dominance, or to the period since 1880, when large-scale European immigration turned the city of São Paulo into one of the largest metropolises in the world.

    Brazil was traditionally depicted as a plantation economy dominated by slaves and slave owners. However, all recent studies have denied the picture painted so ably by Gilberto Freyre over a half century ago of a dichotomous society dominated by the plantation; in fact, most scholars have stressed that Brazil looked more like the United States than the West Indies in the relative weight of slaves and slave owners in the population.1 Our survey of …

We examine how this transformation of maize production occurred, how it evolved in different ways in these two countries and how it relates to changes in their general agricultural development

  • Dinâmica da atividade agrícola até meados do século XIX

    Open Access•Francisco Vidal Luna, Herbert Klein et al.•ARTICLE•Revista USP•2022

    Até o início do século XX a história do Brasil foi marcada pela dinâmica da atividade agrícola, tanto a grande lavoura exportadora, como a agropecuária voltada ao abastecimento do mercado interno, que se confundia com a atividade de subsistência. Embora o mercado internacional fosse o elemento dinâmico, os efeitos sobre as atividades não exportadoras são essenciais para explicar a história, ocupação e povoamento do território brasileiro. Neste ar…

    The production and export of sugar defined the colonial history of Brazil. It was here that the first modern slave based plantation system was created in America. Up through the end of the 17th century it was the dominant Atlantic producer of sugar. Although production continued to grow it was replaced in world markets in the 18th century by West Indian growers and was late to modernize in the 19th and early 20th century. Yet today it is once aga…

  • The Complex Evolution of Wheat Production in Brazil

    Open Access•Herbert S Kein, Francisco Vidal Luna•ARTICLE•Historia Agraria Revista de…•2024•Referencias: 3

    Although Brazil today is one of the world’s largest agricultural exporters and has the highest positive trade balance, it is still a net importer of wheat. Changes in consumption stemming from European migrants, who switched from cassava flour to wheat products in the late 19th century, led to mass importation of wheat. Brazilian governments in the mid-20th century subsidized the production and sale of wheat to reduce consumer prices, but product…
