Abstract

This paper analyses the main themes approached in the book The Brazilian
Inflation on the eve of the 30th anniversary of its publication. We start by presenting Rangel’s
critiques to the Monetarist and Structuralist Schools followed by the author’s own interpretation
of the causes of the Brazilian inflation. Suggestions of policy to face this problem
are presented and, as a conclusion, the paper shows that the book reached the status of a
classical work on the subject.
