This paper aims to investigate the intraregional inequalities in the BrazilianNortheast, based on the differentiation of its productive structure. For this, a spatial
decomposition analysis is applied, inspired by Feldman et al. (1987) and adapted according
to Dietzenbacher et al. (2000) and Jackson and Dzikowski (2002). An input-output matrix is
used (GUILHOTO et al., 2010), base year 2004, with 111 sectors and 10 regions (9 states of
the Northeast and the rest of Brazil). The main results indicate that the final demand plays
a significant role in determining the difference in the sectors output related to the services
segment, mainly in the states of Bahia, Ceará and Pernambuco. On the other hand, final
demand was not responsible for certain differences in the output between some agricultural
activities, sectors related to the food industry and tobacco. In addition, final demand does not explain the output differences in almost all sectors among the states of Alagoas,
Maranhão, Paraíba, Piauí, Sergipe and Rio Grande do Norte.
