UMA ANÁLISE ECONÔMICA DAS DIFERENTES PECULIARIDADES ENTRE OS COREDES MÉDIO ALTO URUGUAI E FRONTEIRA OESTE

Abstract

This work aims to demonstrate the differences between the regional development Councils – COREDEs - the Middle High Uruguay and the Western Boundary, and how these influence the economy of each region. For it sought to analyze the contribution history; compare peculiarities and differences, and; to verify the influence of the indicators presented in the economy of each COREDE studied. The methodological strategy used was the bibliographical research through books, scientific articles and government websites, adopting as the deductive method. The choice of two COREDEs occurred because both have as their main economic activity in agriculture, and have poorly developed industrial sector, however their economic indicators have uneven results, being important to check what generates this inequality and regional disparities. Thus, the main results show that the Middle High Uruguay has territorial extension less, the largest economic source is agriculture, with a predominance of small property, and presents a GDP of 2.5 billion; already the West Border is more extensive, the main economic activity is agriculture of latifundio and presents a GDP of 10.5 billion. Therefore, the development of a region, and inequality indicators presented are related with the economic exploitation, resources, population and territory available for it.
