Os mercados intersetoriais da economia brasileira nos anos 70

Abstract

This paper presents a simple method to compare input-output tables, based on indicators that capture two aspects of the productive system: the size of intersectoral markets and the share of value added created by each sector. Besides identifying the factors. of steadiness and disturbance in the pattern of . intersectoral relations of the economy,- the method provides an assessment of the changes occurred in sectoral linkages, and of the degree of interdependency in the process of structural change. The empirical evidences examined are derived from the Brazilian tables for 1970, 1975 and 1980.
