Brazilian economy growth On the global crisis scenario that began in 2008, the projected economic indicators require frequent revisions. Even so, some studies in this direction indicate situations reasonably favorable to the Brazilian economy growth. For example, the OECD Economic Outlook study (2012) estimates growth rates for GDP for the periods 2012-2017, 2018-2030 and 2031-2050, shown in Table 2.4. It is expected that Brazil reach a growth rate above all developed countries that comprise the G7, slightly above to the world average, but lower than other emerging countries, such as China, India, Indonesia, and also Turkey (in the first two considered periods). According to the survey conducted by PriceWaterhouseCoopers (HAWKSWORTH, 2006), Brazil will take a prominent position in the world economy in 2050. This study indicates Brazil positioned between the four largest economies, surpassing Germany and Japan, considering estimates for GDP growth in terms of purchasing power parity. It should be noted that in absolute terms, each of the top three must have a size of four (U.S. and India) to almost five (China) times that of the Brazilian economy. In terms of GDP per capita designed to Brazil in 2050, despite representing an increase of US$ 8,311 in 2005 to US $ 34,448 in 2050, it will remain below the G7 countries and also in relation to several emerging countries, like China Russia, Mexico and Turkey. 2.2 ECONOMY AND POLITICS
