The central hypothesis is that economic dependence on the mineral extraction sector makes this municipality more vulnerable to adverse shocks affecting this productive sector, compromising its job recovery capacity. In order to calculate the impacts of this disaster, datas on formal employment estimated through the Synthetic Control Method were used. The results showed that, although Mariana and its synthetic version show similar formal employment trajectory in the pre-shock period, Mariana recovered employability in the second year after the dam rupture, unlike the control group. However, this result is not due to the recovery of formal employment based on sustainable economic diversification strategies, but essentially by dependence of the mining activity and the post-disaster remediation actions that has been gradually implemented in order to recover affected areas. 2022 artículo científico 1808-5792 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=133475550004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1334/133475550004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1334/133475550004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1334/133475550004/133475550004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1334/133475550004/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1334 Gestão & Regionalidade application/pdf Universidade Municipal de São Caetano do Sul Gestão & Regionalidade (Brasil) Num.114 Vol.38 |
