          Abstract

          The goal of this work is to analyze empirically the Brazilian exports by degree of elaboration between 1980 and 2015 based on the ECLAC theory, articulating it with the gravitational model Eaton-Kortum - that has been distinguished by the incorporation of structural elements in its analysis. The results obtained indicate that relative price, size of economies and trade barriers emerge as parameters for the considered gravitational model, as well as for structuralist-ECLAC theory, as parameters that express the flow and the quality of exchanges among economies. Econometric analysis proves the importance of GDP, as well as technical and trade barriers in the explanation of Brazilian exports by degree of elaboration. However, the results suggest little effectiveness of relative prices in fostering domestic foreign sales.
