Neste artigo, procuro examinar o significado mais amplo do experimento de crescimento liderado pelo consumo de massas e a validade empirica de alguns dos tradeoffs citados no debate, como entre consumo e investimento e investimento do governo e consumo do governo, e sugerir que se levem em consideracao, como unidade de avaliacao do experimento, as brechas de consumo necessario, discricionario e de bens publicos da populacao brasileira. As brechas sugerem um ainda importante espaco para redistribuicao e avanco na provisao de bens publicos sociais. O potencial dos servicos publicos sociais de contribuir para o crescimento economico com equilibrio social e sustentabilidade ambiental emerge da analise como a aposta que ainda nao foi feita.","PeriodicalId":274789,"journal":{"name":"Revista de Economia Política","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125344568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data make clear the different dynamics of the GFCF in dwellings and other buildings and structures and in machinery and equipment - and, as a consequence, the crucial role of the latter variable in the dynamics of Brazilian aggregate investment. The econometric specifications, in turn, suggest shocks in the real exchange rate international commodity prices and public investment as underlying causal mechanisms of the quarterly behavior of the Brazilian GFCF.","PeriodicalId":274789,"journal":{"name":"Revista de Economia Política","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115796605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research analyses the dovetailing of interests between the Lula (the Brazilian President from 2003 to 2010) administration and the civil construction business - the latter concerned with expanding its business, and the former with increasing the supply of jobs and the level of economic activity. This process culminated in the launching of the largest social housing program to be implemented in the country.
