Abstract

The aim of this study is to analyze the Brazilian export profile, by technological intensity, between 2000 and 2012. Data were extracted from the Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Trade (MDIF), classified according to the Mercosur Common Nomenclature (MCN) to six digits. The identification of categories of technological intensity followed the classification proposed by the taxonomy of Pavitt (1984). It was found that there was a tendency towards the reprimarization of the exports, and this process was recognized through greater representation of primary goods and intensive in natural resources over the period. Most of this scenario is due to the increase in international commodity prices, resulted from the growth of demand from emerging markets, especially China.
