Notes on the industrial development and economic policy in Brazil in the 1930s
Abstract
This note aims for a critical appreciation of Furtado’s analysis of the 1929
Economic crisis’ effects on the industrial development of Brazil. Although in need of corrections,
Furtado’s view on the event as the pivotal point in Brazil’s industrialization remains
true.
