Introduction by the editor

The economic history of Brazil is an especially complex field of study. The aim of this bibliography is to introduce scholars to the basic available literature on each phase of Brazilian history. As expected, it is not an exhaustive one. Further basic readings include Caio Prado Jr. (Historia Economica do Brasil, among others), Celso Furtado (Formacao Economica do Brasil, among others), and Sergio Buarque de Holanda (Historia Geral da Civilizacao Brasileira org., among others).
