A controvérsia sobre o salário-mínimo e a taxa de salários na economia brasileira. novas evidências
Abstract
A few articles appeared recently in the Brazilian economic literature discussing the role played by minimum wage in the determination of the wage-rate in the formal sector of the economy. This paper tries do shed some light in the discussion through the utilization of new empirical evidence. We end up by concluding that minimum wage is very important to determine the wage-rate in Brazil.
