Abstract
As a British journalist has stated, ‘Brazil is three countries, each more than twice the size of France, wrapped in a continent. One, in the south, is a land of progress; another in the north-east, of lost wealth and poverty and the third in the west, an almost untameable frontier’. These circumstances, plus a population over 110 million, half of which is currently under age 20, go far in explaining the birth of tax incentives in Brazil.
