Resumo

Neste trabalho, mostra-se que variações once-for-all do nível da taxa de câmbio podem desempenhar um papel importante na composição setorial da economia e tal fato tem implicações importantes em termos de uma versão desagregada da Lei de Thirlwall mesmo diante do argumento da insignificância quantitativa dos movimentos de preços relativos. Mostra-se, então, que a taxa de crescimento de um país compatível com o equilíbrio no balanço de pagamentos pode ser afetada por movimentos do nível de taxas de câmbio nominal e o conceito de uma taxa de câmbio natural é introduzida.
