RESUMO

In the capitalism economic history the search for the economic development was always associated with industrialization. The countries that made the first and the second industrial revolution are those considered developed and this kind of industrialization becomes the great search of the developing countries that obtained success in century XX, including Brazil. However, with internationalization of the production and the great technological innovation, the industrialization did not solve the problem of underdevelopment. The economic productivity did not result in social efficiency. This thesis wanted to analyze the relation between industrialization and economic development and the limits of the regional public politics in this process, especially what happened in the region of Vale do Paraíba in São Paulo state after the Second World War. Analysing the series of historical quantitative information, limited in respect to development, it was possible to conclude that the politics of economic development in Vale do Paraíba succeeded in relation to the economic growth, but failed in the process of space distribution of the income, with your great concentration after these politics on 70s, due to the reduction of the spillover on the other neighbouring areas. The inefficacy of the models of regional development was also remarked, because it reduced the multiplier effect of the investments, as occurred in Vale do Paraíba, where industrialization was limited to a few towns. The precariousness of the social statistics does not allow making a deep analysis of economic development resulted of the industrialization in the region. So, it concludes that it is necessary to include new variables in the search for quality that exceeds the economic barrier, understanding that the economic development involves such variables. The politics of regional development must be reconsidered and be reclassified in other categories as the accomplishments made with the available resources in the search of the best conditions of life, in agreement with the establishment of values according to local culture, in the social relations between the individuals of the region, and mainly the search of the values beyond the economic ones. It needs not econometrical models of regional economic development, but actions that favours the endogenous politics in this economic world more and more global and with local social responsibilities.
