A economia da depressão está de volta?
Abstract
Resumo: O objetivo do artigo é caracterizar a situação econômica brasileira atual e esboçar as linhas gerais de um receituário de recuperação. O Brasil possui nos dias de hoje as principais características das depressões de 1870 e 1930. Naqueles episódios, houve uma queda acentuada do produto, uma elevada taxa de desemprego e uma prolongada insuficiência de demanda. O Brasil vive uma depressão e não apenas uma recessão passageira. O diagnóstico e o receituário para a economia brasileira foram elaborados a partir das ideias e da experiência de John Maynard Keynes durante os anos 1930. The purpose of this article is to characterize the current Brazilian economic situation and outline a prescription for its recovery. Nowadays, Brazil has the main characteristics of the depressions of the 1870s and 1930s. During those events, there was a sharp fall in output, a high unemployment rate and a prolonged insufficiency of demand. Brazil faces a depresssion not a transitory recession. The diagnosis and the recovery prescription for the Brazilian economy were elaborated from the ideas and experience of J.M. Keynes during the 1930s.Published
