Modelos de crescimento com restrição no balanço de pagamentos: contexto histórico, desdobramentos recentes e a busca por uma nova agenda

Abstract

This work makes a survey of the literature on the balance-of-payments constrained growth models. The article presents the historical background of the model, its most recent developments, criticisms and corresponding defense arguments, and suggests possible future research agendas. Given the paucity of literature on the subject in Portuguese, this work can also serve as a practical study guide in order to present and disseminate the model discussed herein to a wider audience across the country.
