Spatial concentration of production and social inequalities

Resumo

This article aims to analyze the relationship between spatial concentration of production and social inequality in Brazil, a multidimensional phenomenon that precedes wage labor, but receives greater attention in the advancement of the urbanization process. The hypothesis defended here is that, if endowed with logistical and educational infrastructure under similar conditions to the dynamic center of the national economy, the peripheral states would present economic density and tax collection capacity similar to those richer states, with impacts on capita income, IDHM and other socioeconomic indicators. In 2014, the states of the South and Southeast accounted for more than 71.35% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP), accommodating only 56.29% of the population, while the Northeast had a 13.93% share of GDP, accommodating 27.69 % of the population. The sector analysis of income and gross revenues of companies reveals the gulf between North/Northeast and South/Southeast, ensuring the maintenance of social inequalities between the two groups.
