摘要:This study compares the economic performances of Brazil, Mexico and the US since 1950. As with most other high and middle-income countries, their economies are service-sector orientated and have been for several decades. This book encompasses all sectors of the economy but focuses primarily on services, analysing both the main trends in the various service industries in Brazil and Mexico and the underlying forces shaping their huge expansion.
