Capitalismo, dependência e distribuição de renda: a contribuição de Maria da Conceição Tavares para a economia do desenvolvimento.

Maria da Conceição Tavares has a distinguished role in Latin-American thought, transiting from Structuralism to a critique of the cepal tradition that would lead to the creation of a new field in the economics of development, the so-called "Campinas School". This paper discusses an essential dimension of her intellectual transition: the innovative treatment of the relationship between dependency, capital accumulation, savings, and income distribution.
