Brazilian Economy: Growth and Development 6th Edition

byWerner Baer(Author)
Sorry, there was a problem loading this page. Try again.

Baer's text on the Brazilian economy has been revised and expanded to incorporate new scholarship and events that have occurred since the publication of the previous edition. In addition to updating the historical chapters based on information gleaned from current research, Baer has added new discussions on the growth of the Brazilian debt crisis, the resurgence of inflation in the 1980s, the ill-fated Cruzado Plan, and changes in the industrial structure of the country.

    excellent and satisfying
  • Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2011
    After reading "Historia concisa do Brasil" by Boris Fausto -a book that I enjoyed a lot-, I was eager to read the book by Baer. I thought that it was going to be a good complement on the economic front. What a disappointment! The book is too descriptive, too many tables and numbers, and it follows a very boring chronological pattern for each chapter. I was expecting that the second part, the thematic part, was going to be better... but it again follow a descriptive and chronological pattern... and very little analysis. The best chapter is the 13th chapter (co authored with Mueller). The author also has not courage to take positions: in many cases he presents the "two sides", but he avoids to deliver proper ideas. I thought that a book that has reached its sixth edition would be great, but after reading it, I realized why it was the sixth edition... surely all the previous editions became outdated too quickly, and to have a sixth one was the only way to remain in the book market.

    Reviewed in Canada on April 18, 2014
    This is an indispensable book for anyone interested in modern Brazil, but it contains an extraordinary error. On page 317 it says that the River Paraiba do Sul flows into Guanabara Bay. It does no such thing, and would have to flow over a mountain range to do it. It is remarkable that this has gone uncorrected through six editions.
