Short Run

Historians have long acknowledged that London, because of its enormous size and rapidly growing demand for labor, acted as a powerful magnet for migrants from throughout southern England. However, while there is a large literature documenting the flow of migrants to London, there have been surprisingly few attempts to determine the consequences of this migration for southern labor markets. This article attempts to redress the imbalance in the literature by examining the influence of London on agricultural labor markets during the nineteenth century. In particular, the article examines the effect of distance from London on wage rates in southern England at various points in time, and the effect of labor market conditions in London on short-run changes in agricultural wage rates.

Mass Consumption

Evaluation of the growth model of the PT governments based on the contributions of Celso Furtado reveals that the recent growth cycle has alleviated the typical characteristics of underdevelopment by developing a mass consumption market and improving labor market conditions. However, the limitations of the model prevented modernizing the structure of production to sustain changes on the demand side, including labor in sectors with higher productivity, limiting the control of foreign subsidiaries, and reducing the structural vulnerability inherent in specialization in basic commodities exports. The limits of the model were aggravated by the crisis of 2008–2009, revealing the difficulty of incorporating a peripheral economy like the Brazilian into global capitalism. Uma avaliação do modelo de crescimento dos governos do PT a partir da contribuição de Celso Furtado revela que o ciclo de crescimento recente amenizou características típicas do subdesenvolvimento ao desenvolver um mercado de consumo de massa no Brasil e ao melhorar as condições no mercado de trabalho. No entanto, as limitações do modelo não permitiram modernizar a estrutura produtiva de forma a sustentar as transformações do lado da demanda, incluir a mão de obra em setores de maior produtividade, limitar o controle das filiais estrangeiras, e diminuir a vulnerabilidade estrutural inerente à especialização em exportações de commodities básicas. Os limites do modelo de desenvolvimento adotado se agravaram após a crise de 2008–2009, revelando as dificuldades de inserção de uma economia periférica como a brasileira no capitalismo global.
