Abstract

The industrialization policy executed in several developing countries (Brazil andMexico, for example) produced an unusually fast growth of these economies when such policysucceeded. Nevertheless, the recent evolution shows that the main problems were not reallysolved. Through the development of a model, this paper studies at length the mechanismof social disarticulation, which is understood as the incapacity of the modern sector to promotethe development of the whole economy, particularly in the Brazilian case (from 1968to 1973), at the top of what was then called “the Brazilian miracle”. JEL Classification: O15; O41; J30.
