Abstract
Abstract:In the 1950s and '60s, Brazil experienced rapid economic growth and modernization under a policy of "developmentalism" that privileged young workers and gave the teenaged population unprecedented consumer power. This newfound economic status lent cultural prestige to the internationally informed teen culture of the era and laid the foundations for cross-class unity to fight the military dictatorship of the late twentieth century.
