4.2. Making history

Despite the difficulties of the FEDERAL STATE in exercising control over the enormous Brazilian territory, in the 1930s the STATE BUREAUCRACY CONSOLIDATED (with a very CORPORATIVE modality) and the CENTRAL GOVERNMENT ESTABLISHED ITS POWER.

Olivieri maintains that the PROCESS OF MODERNIZATION AND INTEGRATION IN BRAZIL WAS NOT CHANNELLED BY THE POLITICAL PARTIES, BUT BY THE STATE BUREAUCRACY (especially during the Vargas dictatorship).
