A estrategia de desenvolvimento no II PND: a estrategia industrial.

The objective of the second national development plan was to define industrial expansion in Brazil. The capital goods industry had to be aligned with large infrastructure projects. Also public sector national enterprise was a key element. A newly created financial base 'FIBASE', the national development bank, and state enterprises are principal agents of change in the industrial model. However, the II PND has not succeeded in changing the model because from the beginning it has not considered the realities of the Brazilian economy.-translated by J.Robertson
