As transformações econômicas ocorridas na nova fronteira agrícola do agronegócio brasileiro, Matopiba, principalmente com relação às oportunidades de emprego no setor, têm motivado o fluxo migratório para essa região. Assim, pretende-se avaliar os diferenciais de renda entre o migrante e o não migrante dessa região. Utilizando-se microdados do Censo Demográfico de 2010, disponibilizados pelo Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística, foram estimadas equações dos diferenciais de rendimentos, separando os indivíduos por situação de domicílios (rural e urbano), mercado de trabalho (formal e informal) e setores de atividades. Os resultados evidenciaram que o não migrante obteve menores rendimentos que o migrante, em todos os grupos de trabalhadores. Os maiores diferenciais de rendimentos ocorreram entre os indivíduos rurais, os trabalhadores do mercado informal – especificamente entre os trabalhadores autônomos – e os empregados na atividade agrícola. Supõe-se, portanto, que a inserção do migrante na economia local contribui para a expansão da agricultura nessa região.

“…Other studies emphasized positive effects of the concentration of skilled workers in the Brazilian labor market (Queiroz and Calazans, 2010). However, variations in cohort size across municipalities in Brazil led to associations with workers' earnings (Amaral, 2012;Amaral et al, 2012;Amaral et al, 2013a;Amaral et al, 2013b;Amaral et al, 2015;Amaral et al, 2016). More specifically, higher proportions of the population in ageeducation groups are negatively associated with income of these groups.…”

“…Previous studies estimated that higher proportions of older and better educated workers have negative correlations with earnings, but these effects have been decreasing over time (Amaral, 2012;Amaral et al, 2012;Amaral et al, 2013a;Amaral et al, 2013b;Amaral et al, 2015;Amaral et al, 2016). Workers with primary education have not experienced improvements on earnings even with their decreasing share in the population.…”

Brazil experienced population ageing and improvement in educational attainment between 1980–2010. Proportion of workers in the formal economic sector increased between 2000–2010. Earnings decreased from 1980 to 1991 and increased in 2000. However, earnings in the formal economic sector decreased again in 2010. We estimate associations of individual- and area-level variables with individual earnings of male workers living in urban areas in Brazil. Ordinary least squares regressions estimate variations on earnings of male workers, using the 1980–2010 Demographic Censuses. Individual independent variables include age, education, economic sector, race/color, marital status, religion, and region of residence. Contextual independent variables consider demographic, educational, and economic sector compositions by areas of residence. Considering individual-level variables, older and better educated workers have higher earnings. Workers in the formal economic sector have higher earnings than in the informal sector. For area-level variables, higher proportions of people working in the formal economic sector have positive associations with earnings. Proportions of people in age-education groups have negative associations with earnings mostly among older workers. For models by economic sector, proportions in age-education groups have higher positive coefficients in the informal sector, compared to the formal sector. Transitions in demographic, educational, and economic sector compositions are correlated with earnings. These effects generate greater economic inequality in the informal sector than in the formal sector. Our main contribution is the estimation of models about associations of individual earnings with individual and area-level variables, which can be replicated for other countries.

Constructing a city, building a life: Brazilian construction workers’ continuous mobility as a permanent life strategy

This article provides an ethnographic analysis of domestic labor mobility among Brazilian construction workers in the context of the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. We start from the premise that mobile laborers are crucial for the physical development and expansion of cities. However, the importance of domestic migrants in this process is insufficiently addressed in mobility studies. Building on existing research on domestic population movements in Brazil, we argue that the current generation of mobile construction workers draws on the intangible and material infrastructure generated by previous generations of migrants to enable novel kinds of (permanent) labor mobilities.
