Evolução da concentração industrial no Brasil: 1949-80
Resumo
This paper studies the evolution of industrial concentration in Brazil from 1949
to 1980, based upon the industrial census of IBGE. The study reaches conflicting
results when concentration is analysed in terms of employment or production. It is
suggested as the most plausible hypothesis to explain this divergent behavior a
process of capital intensification, that would have had different impacts over the
inequality of size of the industrial establishments, reducing it in the first case
(employment) and increasing it in the second (production).
