Evidência empírica sobre formação e comportamento dos preços industriais: uma análise das equações de preços

Resumo

This paper intends first to identify which are the main streams of thought
present in debate about industrial policies. In the second place, there are reviewed
here theoretical frameworks that take account of the relation between investment
and technological change, where investment is seen as the crucial element for the
development of the capilists economies. Finally, it is intended to show here that
technological changes are seen by the great majority as the main goal to be pursued
by industrial police makers. However, several differences concerning the kinds of
political tools to be used still exist. At this point it is emphasized here that there must
be a comprehensive understanding of the innovation process. Following this discussion,
some concepts and police proposals concerning this process are presented here
as a guide to action.
