Abstract

This article investigates the regional distribution of priority investments of public-private partnerships (PPP), based on the logistic conditions for business-oriented networks in the regions and the strategic perspective of reducing regional inequalities, with a focus on transportation systems. Taking into consideration the positive aspects of regulation and the fact that it does not have as its objective the promotion of decentralization of the national wealth, the article concludes that PPPs are not supposed to reduce regional inequalities in Brazil, a distortion with extremely negative repercussions for Brazilian development. Besides, the article indicates that it is even possible for PPPs to have an adverse effect, strengthening inequalities.
