Summary
The historiography of the period 1870–1930 may be approached through Nícia Vilela Luz, ‘Brazil’, in Roberto Cortés Conde and Stanley Stein (eds.), Latin America: A Guide to Economic History, 1830–1930 (Berkeley, 1977), which contains several hundred annotated entries of primary and secondary sources, as well as a valuable interpretive article. Important collections include various contributions on economic subjects to Sérgio Buarque de Holanda (ed.), História geral da civilização brasileira; Tomo II, 0 Brasil monárquico, vols. 3 and 4 (São Paulo, 1967, 1971); and the same series, edited by Boris Fausto, Tomo III, 0 Brasil republicano, vol. 1 (São Paulo, 1975); Colloque Internationale sur l’ Histoire Quantitative du Brésil, L’Histoire quantitative du Brésil de 1800 à 1930 (Paris, 1971); Paulo Neuhaus (ed.), Economia brasileira: Uma visão histórica (Rio de Janeiro, 1980); Carlos Manuel Peláez and Mircea Buescu (eds.), A moderna história econômica (Rio de Janeiro, 1976); and Werner Baer et al., Dimensōes do desenvolvimento brasileiro (Rio de Janeiro, 1978). Marcelo de Paiva Abreu (ed.), A ordem do progresso; cem anos de política econômica republicana (Rio de Janeiro, 1990) contains excellent summary articles by Winston Fritsch and Gustavo H. B. Franco. See also Albert Fishlow, ‘Brazilian development in long-term perspective’, American Economic Review, 70/2 (1980). Among general studies of the Brazilian economy in historical perspective the following deserve mention: Werner Baer, The Brazilian Economy: Growth and Development, 3rd ed. (New York, 1989); Mircea Buescu, Problemas econômicas e experiência histórica (Rio de Janeiro, 1985); João Manuel Cardoso de Mello, 0 capitalismo tardio: Contribuição à revisão crítica da formação e do desenvolvimento da economia brasileira (São Paulo, 1982); and Carlos Manuel Peláez, História econômica do Brasil (São Paulo, 1979).
