Abstract

This work deals with the generation and the paths taken by the economic sector of yerba-mate at the Province of Rio Grande do Sul, between 1822 and 1889, and, thereafter, identifies the impacts and developments of emergence of this new sector for the politics, society and economy of the Province. The analysis came from two points of view: the socio-economic and the political. With respect to the first point, it taken into account the colonization, foreign trade, State actions, labor relations and means of production. With respect to the second, it taken into consideration the Rag-amuffin and Paraguayan Wars, both conflicts that shook the Province during Empire of Brazil. The recognition of the consequences of these agents on the economy and society of the yerba-mate is an important step to understand the changes that occurred in this economic sector and its effects on regional development (AU)
