Analysis of productive structure applying network theory: The Brazilian case

摘要

In this work, we intend to characterize the complexity of the Brazilian productive structure through network theory. We investigate how this structure is internally organized, from a network of knowledge, considering the occupations linking productive activities. Results reveal it is imperative for Brazil to rethink its productive structure to remove. the obstacles that prevent, or make it difficult, that the varied activities encompass more diversity of occupations.
