Chambers of Commerce and Business Elites in Great Britain and Brazil in the Nineteenth Century
Chambers of commerce were the main pressure groups serving as intermediaries between the business elite and the government in Great Britain and Brazil in the nineteenth century. The most important problem they faced in both nations was promoting a legal and institutional framework that would facilitate economic expansion. In both nations, the critical factors affecting this task were the need of the state for the expert advice that business press…

Business Interest Groups in Nineteenth-Century Brazil
Business Interest Groups in Nineteenth-Century Brazil
This book is the first to describe the role of business interest groups, also known as pressure groups, in the development of Brazil during the nineteenth-century. Business interest groups strongly affected the modernization and prosperity of agriculture, the pace of industrialisation, and patterns of communications. Although they sometimes initiated enterprises themselves, they most affected development by influencing the scope and direction of …
Pre-Modern Interest Groups and Government
Despite the considerable scholarly attention given contemporary interest groups (also known as pressure groups), there are few studies of their governmental influence and operations in a premodern setting. Such studies could tell us much, not only about the historical roots of interest groups, but about governmental processes in premodern nations. Brazil in the nineteenth century is a good subject for such research. With its economy largely based…
Business Associationalism, the Legitimation of Enterprise, and the Emergence of a Business Elite in Nineteenth-Century Brazil
Operating in an economy that was still primarily export-import based and in a cultural environment suspicious of all business interests, members of Brazil's nineteenth-century business elite laced many obstacles to legitimizing their activities. Ironically, erforts to win acceptance tended to fragment business groups and eventually opened the way for a new industrial bourgeoisie at the expense of the overseas traders
A Tropical Belle Époque
To Be a Slave in Brazil, 1550-1888
Foreign Predominance Among Overseas Traders in Nineteenth-Century Latin America
Writing of nineteenth-century Peru, historian Jorge Basadre observed, "To discuss the commercial life of the country is to discuss the role of the foreigner." Historian Francisco Calderón similarly stated that during the late nineteenth century, "it may be affirmed that various foreign houses with great capital generally dominated Mexican overseas commerce." A visitor to nineteenth-century Brazil remarked of Rio de Janeiro's foreign trading house…
Business, Nationality and Dependency in Late Nineteenth Century Brazil
No one is unaware,' stated Brazil's Minister of Finance Ruj Barbosa in 1891, 'that commerce, especially large-scale commerce, in our most important trade centers resides in greatest part, not to say in its near entirety, in the hands of foreigners.' Rui was calling attention to a situation of increasing concern to Brazilian leaders: the preponderance of foreigners in big business. Another Brazilian Minister of Finance, Felisbello Freire, remarked…
O Minotauro Imperial
Class Sector Unity in an Export Economy
R ECENT studies of twentieth-century Latin American society have found a surprising convergence in political attitudes between big businessmen and landowners. This is especially true for Brazil. Brazil's business elite has never challenged the political power of the traditional landowning elite or the patriarchal framework in which politics traditionally has been practiced.There has been no conflict between the two elites, such as characterized t…
Interest Groups and Development
The problem of how institutions have affected economic and social development has occupied much of the attention of social scientists. An area now beginning to attract the attention of students of development is the role of interest groups. However, little work has been done on the influence of interest groups during the nineteenth century, a period in which the developmental progress of nations now considered to be economically and socially 'mat…
The Merchant Elite and the Development of Brazil
Export-import merchants played a central role in the industrialization of Brazil. Many of the Brazilian Empire's noted entrepreneurs began as merchants, including the Barão de Mauá, perhaps the most famous of all, and the noted Bahian industrialist-philanthropist, Luís Tarquínio. Individual merchants served as cadres and furnished capital for early industrialization in both Bahia (Almeida, 1951: 14) and São Paulo (Dean, 1969: 19-33). That export-…
