Abstract: | The causes and consequences of ‘denationalization’, that is, the shift from local to foreign ownership, are examined for the case of the Brazilian pharmaceutical industry. The negative consequences that have been attributed to denationalization by 'dependency theory' are substantiated, but only in part. It is argued that the most interesting contrasts are not between the behavior of foreign and local firms in the industry but between the private sector and a recently created state enterprise, and that future analysis of dependent capitalist development should focus on the interaction of the state and foreign capital. |
