Abstract

Brazilian entrepreneurs have warned about the increasing lack of competitiveness of national companies that are losing ground to imports. Imports went from 11 percent to 22 percent of GDP from 2003 to 2011. The presidents of Confederação Nacional da Indústria (CNI), Robson Braga de Andrade; of the Federação das Indústrias do Estado de São Paulo (FIESP), Paulo Skaf; of Associação Brasileira de Máquinas e Equipamentos, Abimaq, Luiz Aubert Neto; of Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional, Benjamim Steinbruch; and of Valisère, Ivo Rosset, have warned about the urgent need for the government to take steps to reverse the deindustrialization. On July 8 and August 3, 2011, thousands of metalworkers from CUT (Central Ùnica dos Trabalhadores [Workers’ Central Union]) and Força Sindical closed the local track of Via Anchieta, at the ABC Region (Santo André, São Bernardo e São Caetano), and went to the streets of Mogi das Cruzes to protest.1
