In the episode, Ana Frazão talks with Samuel Pessoa, Associate Researcher of FGV IBRE and BTG Practical and Columnist of Folha de SP. Based on an opposition between orthodox and heterodox views, the interviewee explains, in a very didactic way, fundamental questions for the Brazilian debate, such as (i) the differences between growth and economic development and to what extent the reduction of inequality is related to the two questions, (ii) the reasons why Brazil does not grow, as well as the real growth prospects, (iii) the problem of the low productivity of the Brazilian economy and (iv) the relations between state and market, including for the purpose of conducting a critical analysis of the role of industrial policies in Brazil. The teacher still makes a brief analysis of the economic results of the Lula 3 government and maps some of the concerns that need to guide the economic debate in Brazil.
