Description: |
Explore how big business emerged in modern Brazil and impacted the country's development and classification as one of the worlds five major emerging economies. Using an economic historical lens, we will investigate how Brazilian growth and development conforms to or diverges from traditional economic history models. The course looks particularly at theories of development and how transportation, banking, and agribusiness impacted Brazil's 19th and 20th century history. |
