Waves of modernity: the Companhia Nacional de Alcalis in Arraial do Cabo (1943-1964)

The Companhia Nacional de Álcalis - CNA, located in Arraial do Cabo, Rio de Janeiro, and created during the "Estado Novo", was only made possible during the JK government. Icon of the ideology of "nacional-desenvolvimentismo", the CNA incorporates within its history serious problems linked to the circuit of intern and extern interests. The company's trajectory takes us back to the period 1943-1964. Our approach is based on an integrated analysis involving economic, social, and political issues.
