Abstract:
Oswaldo Aranha was one of the most famous and prestigious Brazilian politicians of the 20th century. Known for presiding the UN session when the State of Israel was created, Aranha had an important role in Brazilian politics during the first half of the century. Even though he held a bachelor’s degree in Law, Aranha had to deal with various economic issues along his political career. This paper aims to analyze his economic ideas, arguing that despite his liberal influences, he became an interventionist policymaker in Getúlio Vargas’s administrations.

ABSTRACT Developmental macroeconomics, the economic theory that grounds new developmentalism, is a heterodox approach whose establishment was deeply influenced by dissonant schools of thought.

To serve this purpose, we compare the economic diagnoses, social objectives and policy prescriptions defended by the partisans of these two schools of economic thought.

Abstract:
Abstract Even though the New Macroeconomic Consensus (NMC) guidelines have been under review by mainstream economists from developed countries since the 2008 global financial crisis, Brazilian policy-makers are still following these old recommendations. The NMC was adapted in Brazil in 1999 as a policy arrangement known as the macroeconomic tripod: a combination of inflation targeting, floating exchange rates and targets for the primary fiscal surplus. The theoretical basis of this policy arrangement is thus closely aligned to that of the NMC: a reduced (if any) role for fiscal policy and an e

The model used is of the type dynamic panel and assumes a structured correlation matrix intra times and unstructured inter times.

Democracy is, ideally, an equality fostering tool in face of different demands present in any given society and that currently is put in practice by a representative democratic model. Nevertheless, several modern thinkers are pointing to an unmeasured scale of interests within the representation spheres, in which the most powerful society’s sectors overcome the less influential social and economical groups, turning democratic representation into an uneven scheme. By having this in mind, this reflection is aimed to make an analysis of the Brazilian democratic representation model, specifically
