| description |
During the last century, Brazil was one
of the fastest growing economies in the world. Between 1901
and 2000, Brazil's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per
capita grew at an average annual rate of 4.4 percent.
Brazil's long-run growth has rivaled that of counties
such as South Korea, universally praised as a stellar
performer. Brazil does not received the same praise. Perhaps
one reason is that more has been expected of Brazil,
especially by Brazilians themselves. After all the country
is richly endowed with natural resources and is blessed with
an energetic people. Perhaps is that economic growth in
Brazil has been more erratic than in other countries, or it
may be that this economic growth performance has been
accompanied by high inequality, thus diminishing the
"quality" of growth. How is it that the country
with the fastest growth in the region also has the highest
inequality? Are the two facts related, and if so, what can
be done to improve the pattern of future income growth
across the social classes, and reduce its extreme inequality
and the breadth and depth of its poverty? The first volume
summarizes the overall conclusions for policy drawn from the
seven background papers presented in the second volume, and
other relevant research, as well as giving a historical
account of the driving forces behind Brazilian growth since
the 1960s. |
