What is ways the government boosted the growth of industry in Brazil during the 1940s or 1950s?

Answer 1

1.) In the 1950s the government built a steel mill, an oil refinery and many hydroelectric dams. The government also set up a bank that had the explicit purpose of lending money to new businesses. 2.) In an attempt to combat poverty, the Brazilian government instituted a variety of development programs. Most of these programs have focused on developing the industrial sector and also on encouraging people to migrate to Brazil's sparsely populated interior regions. 3.) Another great success was the creation and widespread use of the alcohol-based fuel - gasohol, which is a mix of gasoline and ethanol. By using ethanol (which comes from sugarcane), Brazil has been able to avoid spending large amounts of money on expensive foreign oil. These efforts have resulted in manufacturing now accounting for one third of Brazil's gross national product and status as one of the world's leading industrial nations.
