    O presente artigo propõe uma reavaliação do efeito da abertura comercial na década de 1990 sobre a produtividade do trabalho e emprego no Brasil. A discussão é ancorada em um exercício de decomposição da produtividade no período anterior e posterior à abertura comercial, o qual permite avaliar a participação da realocação intersetorial do emprego e dos ganhos de eficiência intrasetoriais na produtividade agregada.

    Este artigo utiliza a metodologia da complexidade para avaliar a relação entre complexidade econômica e desenvolvimento em quatro países da América Latina: Argentina, Brasil, Chile e México. O artigo mostra que, com a exceção do México (devido às indústrias maquiladoras), os países permaneceram majoritariamente agroexportadores, com aumento da competitividade apenas no setor primário e perda de competitividade nos setores de maior complexidade na…

  • Financial System, Innovation and Regional Development

    João P Romero, Frederico G JaymeARTICLEReview of Political Economy2012References: 5

    This paper discusses the Brazilian financial system and the impact of liquidity preference on regional development in Brazil. In the Post-Keynesian literature, endogenous money is introduced into economic activity through the credit provided by banks. The degree to which banks exhibit lower or higher liquidity preference is crucial to this process. Here we estimate the effect of liquidity preference and other financial variables on the number of …

  • Brazil

    João P Romero, F Silveira et al.ARTICLECEPAL review2011Cited by: 2References: 7

    This article argues that differences in gdp growth rates are related to differences in income-elasticities; and that these, in turn, depend on the technological intensity of domestic production. Statistical tests were conducted to verify this hypothesis; and the following hypothetical elasticities were estimated to demonstrate its validity for the Brazilian economy: (i) basic; (ii) expanded with capital flows; and (iii) implicit. Co-integration t…
