NAME:
After Independence, we integrated ourselves as exporters of primary products into the international division of labor, structured around Great Britain. Brazil specialized in the production, with slaves imported from Africa, of tropical plants for the Europe and North America, this delayed the development of our economy by at least eighty years old. We were essentially an agricultural country and technically backward because we depended on captive producers. Forced workers could not be trusted with other instruments of production than the crudest and cheapest.
