It examines the reasons for the establishment of protectionist practices, the social costs of such practices and the relation between distributive conflicts and protectionism, emphasizing the formation of distributive coalitions. We apply these concepts and ideas to the Brazilian case in order to examine the distributive effects of the protectio-nist structure which prevailed until the late 1980s and the potential changes over the 1990s. Finally, we develop a macroeconomic model to explore the effects of liberalization on the functional distribution of income and aggregate demand
