It takes a closer look at the period between the mid-19th and early 20th centuries, from the founding of the Blumenau colony in the Imperial period to its status as a city in the First Republic. The genetic link with maritime transport networks favoured the creation of a commercial class based on control over the means of production and distribution of the region's resources. This direct link with the German economy can be defined as a singularising element in the political formation of the Itajaí Valley region in relation to the rest of the country: the city of Blumenau is a specific case in which the institutional bases of the economy were built on the basis of a double dependent articulation between the German commercial lobby and the development of the market economy in Brazil.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46394092355735,"sku":"9786208149383","price":5772.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9786208149383.webp?v=1769027810","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/blumenaus-double-dependency-9786208149383","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
