Abstract

This article has the objective to analyze the productive restructuration and the specialization of mesoregions of the Brazil between 2000 and 2009. We used measures of location and specialization with the variable formal employment, and the results were presented in thematic maps to show the spatial distribution of economic activities in Brazil by mesoregions and thus verify that there were spatial changes over the period analyzed. The results showed that the mesoregions that more restructured their production structures, as well as those who had higher coefficients of especialization, were located in the North, Northeast and Midwest. One activity that has established itself as one of the main specialties in all of these mesoregions in 2009 was the public administration. The sector that showed changes, in other words, the most concentrated in the period 2000 to 2009 was the mining sector. Moreover, it can also be noticed that the population dynamics of the North and Midwest can be directly related to the restructuring of production in these regions.
