Termos de troca na pandemia de covid-19: Análise para o Brasil

Abstract

The present work has the general objective of identifying and analyzing the process of possible changes in the terms of trade during the pandemic. To do so, it is necessary to achieve three specific objectives: firstly, to define our own concepts on international trade, terms of trade and Cepal; with this, we seek to contextualize the countries of Latin America in relation to their development strategies; Finally, the transformations and/or stabilities in terms of trade in Brazil during the pandemic context are analyzed. This study is justified by the need for debate on recent events that have consequences for the structure of trade in peripheral countries, especially during this unstable period and still little analyzed. In this sense, it is necessary that there are methodological discussions on these topics, so that the concern regarding possible sequels is highlighted. Regarding the methodological aspects, the research is exploratory, as problems and researchable hypotheses are formulated for further studies. As for the design of the research, it is bibliographic and documentary.
