Abstract

In the years following the Second World War, South American governments implemented development policies aimed at fostering a process of rapid industrialization. During the 1950s, countries like Argentina and Brazil, which had relatively large urban middle-income classes, targeted the automobile industry to lead the process of import substitution of durable goods. It was expected that high tariff and non-tariff barriers together with a set of fiscal incentives would result in the local production of parts and components for locally assembled vehicles.
