Abstract

The Brazilian economy showed high rate of growth between 2005 and 2011. Besides, structural changes may have happened. The aim of this paper is to make a comparison of the Brazilian productive structure in a systematic way, based on the Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) developed to Brazil for the years 2005 and 2011. A SAM model is applied to calculate the decomposition of multipliers in their three effects (direct, indirect and induced), as well as the multipliers of the employment for each sector in the economy. The results demonstrate the greater role of the induced effect on the relationship between the sectors and the economy, highlighting the importance of using SAM’s for systemic analysis of the economy.
