Globalização, desglobalização e o Brasil
As últimas três décadas testemunharam mudanças importantes nas facilidades de transporte, comunicações e processamento de dados, com efeitos sobre os processos produtivos, os fluxos comerciais e a movimentação internacional de capitais. Do ponto de vista das economias em desenvolvimento a recomendação passou a ser que aderir a esse processo poderia ser instrumento fundamental para estimular o desenvolvimento econômico e social. No caso da economi…
Os novos bancos de desenvolvimento
A criação de dois novos bancos de desenvolvimento - o NDB e o AIIB - tem motivado um debate sobre se eles afetarão o funcionamento dos bancos de desenvolvimento existentes e se eles contribuirão para estimular o desenvolvimento econômico em países de baixa renda. Este artigo mostra algumas diferenças entre as duas novas instituições, apresenta algumas estimativas do seu crescimento potencial num futuro próximo e argumenta que é muito provável que…
Brazilian, Chinese, and Indian exports
In some Latin American countries the exporting activity starts at a regional level, with producers only later venturing into more competitive markets. The implicit risk is that a country might never progress from the regional stage to a more global market. This article compares the experiences of Brazil, China and India. It is shown that Brazil relied on the regional market far more intensely than these Asian countries. There were clear gains acc…

Brazilian external sector so far in the 21st century
Although Brazil has traditionally been characterized by a culture of inward-looking policy making, the presence of foreign firms in the Brazilian productive sector has always been significant. The share of foreign-owned firms is one of the highest that can be found among developing countries. This article discusses the main features of the external sector of the Brazilian economy, regarding trade flows, foreign investment, the internationalizatio…
Import substitution in Brazil between 1995 and 2000
The Brazilian economy suffered major changes in the second half of the 1990s, when price stabilization, trade liberalization with an overvalued exchange rate and privatizations altered productive processes in various sectors and led to import substitution, among other phenomena. Import substitution occurred in particular following the reform of the exchange-rate regime, which entailed a substantial devaluation in early 1999. This article seeks to…
A substituição de importações no Brasil entre 1995 e 2000
This work estimates the import substitution process in Brazilian industrial sectors in a recent period and evaluates whether it is occurring naturally or is in part induced by some kind of external commercial policy. An index to measure import substitution was calculated for forty nine sectors of industry. A regression analysis with this index against effective tariffs and real effective exchange rate, during the period 1995-2000, shows that thes…
Behaviour of Brazilian export firms
The analysis of integration processes between two economies has traditionally focused on identifying the intensity of trade creation and diversion, estimated through a simulation of the impact of the reduction or elimination of trade barriers. At the same time, the literature on multinational corporations has stressed the growing weight of intra-firm transactions in total foreign trade. This paper attempts to compare these two theoretical approac…
Brazil in the 1990s
The 1990s have been termed "the reform decade" in Brazil, because of the significant number of changes which took place in various aspects of that country's economic and administrative policy. This article aims to systematically set forth the main features of those changes and analyse them in the light of the literature on reforms. It represents an attempt to sum up various studies made on the case of Brazil as part of a regional-level study coor…
Tariffs and the Plano Real In Brazil
This article analyses the economic rationale of Brazil’s tariff policy during the first two years of the Plano Real. To this end, a study is made of the changes made in import duties for all the products traded. The tariff reform process in Brazil was begun in 1988, after the old Tariff Act had been in effect for thirty years, and represented a marked intensification in the process of trade openness, with the definition of a schedule of gradually…
Integration and trade diversion
Regional integration has once again become an important issue for Latin America and the Caribbean. Compared with previous experiences, however, recent integration commitments have a number of new aspects in such areas as negotiating procedures, the issues involved in the various agreements -some of which are as unprecedented as the adoption of common currencies, the creation of binational companies, common labour laws, etc.- and the actual timing…
An appraisal of recent intra-industry trade for Latin America
Available evidence shows that intra-industry trade has reached quite significant levels for Latin American countries in recent years. Complementarity of productive structures with regional partners and elsewhere is indicative of specific competitiveness and of capacity to gain access to particular markets. More intra-industry trade should, however, bring about gains in terms of specific sectoral specialization, while at the same time requiring co…
