Authoritarian Capitalism: Brazil's Contemporary Economic and Political Development
Tel Janus: Les deux faces du Brésil émergent
Le Brésil en “émergence” se caractérise par une croissance économique soutenue et par une présence affirmée sur la scène internationale. La croissance économique des dernières années est l’expression de la consolidation démocratique et de la stabilité macro-économique dans une conjoncture internationale porteuse. Des interventions très calibrées des autorités monétaires ont permis au Brésil de traverser la crise financière internationale de 2008 …
Scope and Trade Agreements
With a focus on NAFTA, we offer an alternative model of trade negotiations that explains why the dominant partner is able to force concessions only on some issues. Key to our model is the concept ofscope. The environment side agreement excited wide swaths of society; thus, scope was high and international power asymmetries appear to explain the result. Power asymmetries seemed unimportant, however, when bargaining over issues that affected small …
Compared to What: Assessing Brazil’s Political Institutions
A rich and plausible academic literature has delineated reasons to believe Brazil's democratic political institutions-including electoral rules, the political party system, federalism, and the rules of legislative procedure-are suboptimal from the viewpoints of democratic representativeness and policy-making effectiveness. The authors concur that specific peculiarities of Brazilian political institutions likely complicate the process of solving s…
Les marchés publics comme instrument de développement industriel: Le cas d'Hydro-Québec
Les entreprises d'État, au Canada comme ailleurs, ont été mises sur pied pour diverses raisons. Quoi qu'il en soit du mandat initial, l'entreprise, une fois implantée, peut devenir un instrument puissant de politique industrielle, comme on peut l'illustrer par le cas d'Hydro- Québec. Malgré une politique plutôt lâche d'achat préférentiel local, l'entreprise a exercé une influence certaine sur l'industrie québécoise de l'équipement électrique, out…
Le rôle des institutions politiques dans les crises financières de l'Argentine et du Brésil
VARIA Philippe Faucher, Leslie Elliott armijo — Currency crises an decision making frameworks : The politics of bouncing back in Argentina and Brazil This paper seeks to explain why exchange rate crises of rather similar causes and magnitudes can be so much harder for one emerging market country to absorb and bounce back from than for its neighbour. Brazil was able to recover readily from its recent forced devaluation and associated domestic fina…
Crises cambiais e estrutura decisória: A política de recuperação econômica na Argentina e no Brasil
Dans cet article, on cherche à comprendre pourquoi dans des pays à économie de marché émergente les crises cambiales - aux causes et ampleur assez semblables - peuvent être beaucoup plus dures à absorber et à éliminer dans un pays que chez son voisin. On examine ici trois exemples récents de crises: en Argentine ( fin de 2001) et au Brésil (début de 1999 et moitié de 2002). On conclut que la différence résulte surtout de la structure des institut…
We Have a Consensus: Explaining Political Support for Market Reforms in Latin America
By the 1990s, to the astonishment of many observers, most Latin American countries had reformed their systems of national economic governance along market lines. Many analysts of this shift have assumed that it circumvented normal political processes, presuming that such reforms could not be popular. Explanations emphasizing economic crisis, external assistance, and politically insulated executives illustrate this approach. Through a qualitative …

Markets and Democracy in Latin America: Conflict or Convergence
The authors analyze the constraints faced by Latin American countries as they seek both to consolidate fragile democratic regimes and to restore economic dynamism
Restaurando a Governabilidade: O Brasil (afinal) se Acertou
Cet article vise à établir un lien entre les récents changements de la situation politique et économique du Brésil et la question de la gouvernance démocratique. En l'absence d'un modèle de développement alternatif, le Brésil ira inévitablement de l'avant avec les réformes dont le but est de libéraliser le fonctionnement des marchés. La stratégie par étapes du gouvernement Cardoso de réformer l'État et le gradualisme adopté pour s'attaquer aux pr…

Politiques d'ajustements ou érosion de l'État au Brésil
The Brazilian government's capacity for intervention has been weakened by the dismantlement of interest groups and the lack of alternative structures. Since the three “governability” factors (autonomy, concentration and mobilization) are weak, trade liberalization and privatization are applied ineffectively. Moreover, the private sector is divided and unable to react, so the state's loss of power is not compensated for by an increase in the priva…
Africa, Asia, and Latin America
Amérique latine: Les échecs du libéral-populisme
Democratic reconstruction faces numerous obstacles in Latin America. The fall of authoritarian regimes and the election of new political leaders has not necessarily brought a renewal in political practices. Although the catastrophic economic situation of the majority of countries in the region during the 80s requires that radical measures be adopted, the populist type of electoral reconciliation seems unable to break clientelist resistance. The t…

O Estado e o comércio internacional: Tecnologia e competitividade
A teoria pura do comércio internacional é essencialmente um capítulo da economia. Não leva em consideração o papel do Estado. No entanto, esse papel é crucial no capitalismo contemporâneo. Na primeira seção deste artigo, as tendências básicas do comércio internacional são examinadas. Na segunda seção são discutidos alguns aspectos teóricos da evolução da teoria do comércio internacional. A terceira seção traz uma análise do papel do Estado no com…

As velhas e as novas multinacionais: O caso da energia
As teorias atuais sobre corporações multinacionais (MNCs) e transferência de tecnologia alcançaram vários resultados! grandes avanços. Eles são resumidos esquematicamente neste trabalho como a “síntese teórica estabelecida”, resultante da contribuição de três grandes correntes teóricas: o ciclo do produto, a organização industrial e a teoria do investimento estrangeiro direto baseado em vantagens comparativas.

La dynamique de l'aide financière directe du gouvernement fédéral à l'industrie manufacturière au Canada
Le texte examine 1'évolution de l'aide financière directe du gouvernement fédéral à I'industrie manufacturière canadienne entre 1960 et 1980. L'aide fournie, sans être négligeable, est moins substantielle que d'aucuns le laissent parfois entendre. Elle augmente sensiblement jusqu'en 1971 et diminue quelque peu par la suite. Le texte tente de démontrer que l'évolution de cette aide peut être interprétée en bonne partie comme un mécanisme de compen…
The Politics of Industrial Restructuring: Canadian Textiles
The Decline of North American Industry
While the US has not suffered significant falls in either absolute industrial employment or output during the post?war period it has experienced a relative decline in manufacturing, commerce and finance. This decline is documented and three policy responses to industrial decline are discussed: non?tariff protectionism, bail?outs and labour cost reductions. SUMMARY Data are presented to show the relative decline in the Canadian manufacturing secto…
The Concept of Province-Building: A Critique
In the discourse of Canadian political science, the term “province-building” has gained wide currency. Although not often defined explicitly, it denotes the recent evolution of more powerful and competent provincial administrations which aim to manage socioeconomic change in their territories and which are in essential conflict with the central government. In this analysis, the generalizations which constitute province-building are examined and m…

La politique industrielle dans les économies capitalistes avancées
This article analyzes the principal features of industrial policy in the post-war advanced capitalist economies. Industrial policy is defined as a series of discriminatory measures developed by the state to promote industrial growth. Four main directions are outlined: increased financial aid to replace tariff protection; preference accorded to the more concentrated industries, particularly those related to, or in association with, national defens…

Industrial Policy in a Dependent State: The Case of Brazil
The purpose of this paper is to study the industrial policy of the Brazilian state in relation to the process of internationalization of production. The emergence of world capitalism is often interpreted as modifying the sovereignty, the autonomy, and the state capacity for intervention. The effects of internationalization of capital on the state can differ depending on the mode of insertion of the economy into the world economic system. We do no…

Croissance et répression, la double logique de l'Etat deépendant: Le cas du Brésil
Growth and Repression, the Ambiguous Logic of the Dependent State: The Case of BrazilThe often intuitive association between the army and foreign capitalists alters the analysis of the condition of dependency and the nature of the dependent State. We intend to shed light on the importance of the Brazilian State's autonomy, in the face of foreign domination and local capitalists. This autonomy is strengthened by the fundamental shift noticed betwe…

Este trabalho tem o objetivo de entender se as empresas públicas podem ser uma ferramenta de política econômica e ser utilizadas em uma estratégia de crescimento econômico. Diferentes estudos sobre o porquê das empresas públicas surgiram são discutidos para então debater as diferenças na ges…
