RESUMO
The following thesis discusses some issues on the role played by some specific kinds of services in economic development. Within Brazilian experience, the Tertiary Sector development was very significant in the context of recent economic restructuring. Through the 1990 s Brazilian national economy was a scenario of great transformation in which a few restructured and / or modernized, more dynamic services made room for greater economic agility. National economy s rearrangement and the new features of economic sectors inter-relations have been causing impacts on economic activity location and presenting new opportunities. One feared these transformations would cause "de-industrialization" and GDP and occupational concentration on more developed macro-regions and states (especially within those which hold the biggest industrial structures). But analysis on Brazilian GDP growth data leads to the finding of great service interdependency regarding Industry and Agriculture economic performances. There are no sufficient elements to support the theoretical point of view that there has been a tertiary self-determination, a change towards an economic arrangement in which the Services Sector would guide the dynamics of economic development. Labor market behavior shows a higher occupational growth precisely on productive and distributive services, which are strongly influenced by industrial and agri-industrial productive activities. Even when that kind of behavior is guided by a firm strategy of cost reduction - due to high payroll taxation - it does not erase strong evidence of increasing synergy between certain services and other economic activity sectors in the two last decades. As to regional concentration of economic activities, it has been possible to identify redistribution of GDP (IBGE data) and occupations (PNAD-IBGE data) towards peripheral macro-regions. The role of recently restructured activities of the national Tertiary Sector within that process of change is the aim of this thesis. These activities have strengthened their power of influence on Brazilian sector and regional economic development. Despite having an increased in Brazilian GDP growth, these tertiary activities are more significant when it comes to their higher labor increased (PNAD-IBGE data), i.e., the volume of occupations provided by production-support service activities (distributive and production services); and the increase of occupations in the traditional sectors was high to (collective and social services)
