Structuralist Development Macroeconomics Research Group
Structuralist Development Macroeconomics is defined by Bresser-Pereira, Oreiro and Marconi (2014, p. 56) as
“the economic theory that explains economic development as a historical process of capital accumulation, incorporating technological progress and structural change, in which accumulation depends on the existence of profitable investment opportunities offered by sustained growth of demand, which, in turn, depends on the balanced increase of the domestic market and of exports, which, finally, depends on the exchange rate fluctuating around its equilibrium level, instead of being chronically and cyclically overvalued, as is often the case in developing countries.”
The research group was founded
in 2008 by José Luis Oreiro, Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Brasília, Brazil.
Several members of the group have collaborated for many years, publishing extensively in leading national and international journals such as the Brazilian Journal of Political Economy, Metroeconomica, Structural Change and Economic Dynamics, Review of Political Economy, Cepal Review, Investigación Económica, Journal of Post Keynesian Economics, Cambridge Journal of Economics, and International Review of Applied Economics, among others.
The group is known for its high research productivity, with many members holding CNPq Level I research fellowships. Within the scope of the group’s activities, the book Developmental Macroeconomics: New Developmentalism as a Growth Strategy was published by Routledge (UK) in 2015, followed by the volume Moeda e Sistema Financeiro: ensaios em homenagem a Fernando Cardim de Carvalho in 2019.
The research group is registered in the Research Groups Directory of the Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) and certified by the University of Brasília (UnB). Its directory entry is available at http://dgp.cnpq.br/dgp/espelhogrupo/11697. José Luis Oreiro serves as the group’s leader, with Luiz Fernando de Paula as vice-leader.
The group’s research activities
activities are organized into six main lines:
- Growth and Distribution in Post-Keynesian Models
- Growth, Infrastructure and Convergence Clubs
- Financial Fragility and Business Cycles
- Developmental Macroeconomics
- Stock-Flow Consistent Models
- Monetary Policy, Exchange Rate Regime and Sustainability of Public Debt
