About this book

This is described as the first large-scale examination of how industrialists shaped social policy in Latin America. Barbara Weinstein looks at the wide range of programmes a new generation of Brazilian industrialists ran to shape the nation’s labour force.

Her focus is the vision these industrialists held of an orderly, tiered and productive society, which they wanted to impose on the country. Two national agencies founded in the 1940s, SENAI and SESI, are examined in detail; they provided vocational training and social welfare.
