Abstract

Este trabalho tem por objetivo construir indicadores que possam auxiliar os agentes econômicos sobre a situação de cada município em termos de características de desenvolvimento humano, econômico, fiscal e bancário e de dinamismo. A partir desses indicadores, busca-se criar tipologias de municípios homogêneos em termos de características socioeconômicas. O trabalho apresenta também a discussão sobre a regularidade empírica da distribuição do tamanho das cidades, denotada na literatura pela Lei de Zipf, com algumas evidências empíricas para o caso brasileiro. É feita também uma breve exposição sobre a construção de índices compostos, cujo objetivo é apresentar e justificar o uso da técnica estatística de componentes principais. Posteriormente, discute-se a construção dos indicadores, principal objeto do trabalho. Apresenta-se, então, a composição de um índice geral a partir de seis índices parciais, bem como a descrição de cada um destes e as variáveis que os denotam. Na sequência, realiaza-se uma comparação dos municípios por dimensão do indicador. Por fim, apresentam-se algumas conclusões do trabalho. The aims of this paper is to construct indicators that can help economic agents to know the generals aspects of each county in terms of human development characteristics, economic development, fiscal development, banking development and economic dynamism. From these indicators, we seek to create typologies of homogeneous counties behind of socio-economic characteristics. This paper also take discussion about the empirical regularity of distribution of cities concerned of it?s size. This distribution is known in the literature as "Zipf``s Law". We take some empirical evidence for the Brazilian case. We show how to build composite index to present and justify the use of technical statistical principal components. Them, it is show the construction of the indicators, the main object of this paper. The general index is made from six partial indices. We also made the grade of Brazilian counties and their rank. Finally, here are some of the conclusions of the work.
