Abstract

Abstract: This article analyzes a theoretical case for cost-benefit analysis of a local elite accepting the implementation of a special jurisdiction (such as a Special Economic Zone or a Charter City), in which the choice is divided between benefiting from economic prosperity (through revenue) or rent-seeking. In the second part of the text, a brief economic diagnosis of entrepreneurship and employment is made for the Lithium Valley, a region located in the north of the state of Minas Gerais, to support a discussion based on evidence about the possible creation of a special jurisdiction in the region.
