Description
Benjamin Selwyn's Workers, State and Development in Brazil explores how changing class relations shape capitalist development. This book argues that class dynamics play a crucial role in determining the form of development, often overshadowed by the roles of states and markets.
The author examines this idea through an empirical investigation of class dynamics and capitalist development in North East Brazil's São Francisco valley. The study focuses on workers in the export grape sector, who have won significant concessions from employers, contributing to a progressive pattern of regional capitalist development.
This book will appeal to students and researchers interested in processes of capitalist development, agrarian political economy, and international political economy. By shedding light on the complex relationships between class relations, states, and markets, Selwyn's work provides valuable insights into the dynamics of capitalist development.
