Abstract: In Brazil, as in most countries, government strategies have sought to encourage economic growth so as to reduce unemployment and maintain price stability as a deterrent to distributive conflict and rigid inflation, a historically difficult problem to solve in this country. Within this context, the fundamental objective of this article is to discuss the macroeconomic performance of the Brazilian economy during the period between the military dictatorship and the new republic, particularly in relation to inflation, economic growth and unemployment. The main conclusion is that Brazil urgently needs to improve its current economic performance. The federal government must therefore foster public and private investment so that all sectors of the economy may break with the current recession. It must also strengthen mechanisms to control inflation and reduce the risk factor and uncertainty for investors so that they are encouraged to hire labor. This will reduce unemployment and improve the outreach of social protection systems for low-income families. More expressly, it will generate opportunities for the improvement and specialization of certain productive activities so that the country is able to create skilled labor, thereby increasing income and stimulating consumption amongst these future workers.
metadata.dc.description.resumen: En Brasil, como na maioría dos países, as estratexias gobernamentais buscaron fomentar o crecemento económico para reducir o desemprego e manter a estabilidade de prezos como un elemento de control do conflito distributivo e a inflación, un problema historicamente difícil de resolver nese país. Neste contexto, o obxectivo fundamental deste artigo é debater sobre as magnitudes macroeconómicas da economía brasileira durante o período entre a ditadura militar e a nova república, especialmente en relación coa inflación, co crecemento económico e co desemprego. A principal conclusión é que Brasil necesita urxentemente mellorar o seu rendemento económico actual. Polo tanto, o Goberno federal debe fomentar o investimento público e privado para que todos os sectores da economía rompan coa recesión actual. Tamén debe reforzar os mecanismos para controlar a inflación e reducir o factor de risco e a incerteza para os investimentos e así incentivar a contratación de man de obra. Isto reducirá o desemprego e mellorará os sistemas de protección social para familias de baixos ingresos. Así, xeraranse oportunidades para a mellora e especialización de certas actividades produtivas de xeito que o país poida crear man de obra cualificada, aumentando así os ingresos e estimulando o consumo entre estes futuros traballadores.
