Abstract:
Describes the worldwide food industry's new phase (which developed in the 1980s and is called post-fordist) and its current effects on Brazil. In this phase, new sources of capital arose, new fields of investment appeared and Brazilian companies merged with foreign companies. This paper describes the origins of the food industry in Brazil; discusses the performance of agro-industry, chiefly food production, in the context of Brazilian heavy industrialization in the post-war era; presents the latest movements in the Brazilian food system; stresses the main aspects of the restructuring of the food industry in the developed countries; and assesses conditions in Brazil in relation to the new configuration of the worldwide food industry.
