Resumen
This paper presents a critical evaluation of two recent works by historian Paul Cammack on Minas Gerais under the First Republic, in which he argues that its political life was the result of the representation of statewide dominant economic interests. Using a theoretical interpretation of political patrimonialism and economic and taxation data on Minas Gerais state as well as biographies of 542 members of the Minas Gerais political elite, this paper suggests that, contrary to Cammack's conclusions, the state's internal political realignment and role in national politics resulted from a broad political negotiation undertaken by the state oligarchy through clientelist means. The author concludes that this negotiation succeeded precisely because it did not bestow exclusive representation to any specific set of economic or political interests.
