RESUMO O objetivo desta tese foi analisar as principais implicações socioespaciais e produtivas: da instalação de uma grande fábrica de calçados em Itapetinga-BA, da aglomeração de fábricas de calçados em Nova Serrana-MG e em São João Batista- SC. Os aglomerados calçadistas de Nova Serrana-MG e São João Batista-SC foram sendo constituídos a partir do saber fazer na fabricação de calçados cujo processo data dos primeiros anos do século XX. A localização das unidades produtivas espraia-se pela cidade em meio aos espaços onde se “misturam” fábricas, residências e comércio. Em Itapetinga-BA a instalação de uma única fábrica de calçados baseou-se na politica de incentivos fiscais e creditícios implementada pelo Governo do estado da Bahia sob uma agressiva ação de atração de empresas no âmbito da “guerra fiscal”. Esta ação atraiu quase uma centena de estabelecimentos sediados em 50 municípios baianos sem formar uma cadeia produtiva adensada. A “guerra fiscal” através dos benefícios concedidos atraiu para Itapetinga-BA o grupo empresarial calçadista Vulcabrás/Azaleia, que desde 1998 implantou a sede de produção no distrito industrial e 18 filiais foram instaladas em dez municípios no entorno de Itapetinga-BA formando uma base de produção calçadista cuja articulação se dava apenas entre a sede e as filiais. Esta estrutura organizacional da empresa Vulcabrás/Azaleia permaneceu até 2012, com aproximadamente 13.000 postos de trabalho que geravam por mês uma massa salarial de R$ 7.896.912,00 e uma produção de 18 milhões/pares/ano de calçados. A partir desse período foram desativadas as 18 filiais nos municípios adjacentes a Itapetinga-BA. Essa desativação acarretou a demissão de mais de 8.000 empregados, o que resultou em uma grave crise econômica local/regional. A empresa Vulcabrás/Azaleia paga aos empregados salário mínimo, enquanto em nos estados do Rio Grande do Sul e São Paulo pagam aos operários, pelo mesmo trabalho executado cerca de 23,1% e 19,0% a mais do que pagam na Bahia. Acrescentam-se a elevada rotatividade do emprego e a baixa representatividade sindical facilita a acumulação capitalista sem maiores constrangimentos entre capital/trabalho. Conclui-se que as implicações socioespaciais provenientes da instalação e operação da empresa Vulcabrás/Azaleia em Itapetinga-BA resultam num “crescimento econômico precário” por ser incerto, vulnerável e com “prazo de validade”. Em que pese a geração de empego e renda em larga escala a maneira como se processa a atração e permanência dessas empresas na Bahia não promove a emancipação/autonomia socioeconômica do trabalhador, e nem possibilita para o desenvolvimento local/regional apregoado pelo discurso governamental, em razão da economia de enclave criada por não haver sinergias produtivas. Palavras-chave: Fábricas de calçados. Incentivos fiscais-creditícios. Localização industrial. Crescimento econômico precário. ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to analyze the main socio-spatial and productive implications of the installation of a large shoe factory in Itapetinga- state of Bahia (BA), the agglomeration of shoe factories in Nova Serrana, state of Minas Gerais (MG) and São João Batista- state of Santa Catarina (SC). The footwear industries of Nova Serrana and São João Batista were created from the know-how of shoes manufacturing which process is related to the early twentieth century. The location of production units spreads through the city, between regions which mix factories, residences and commerce. In Itapetinga, the installation of a single shoe factory was based on the policy of tax and credit incentives implemented by the Government of Bahia state that acted aggressively to attract companies under the "fiscal war". This action attracted nearly a hundred establishments based in 50 municipalities in that state, without forming a dense production chain. Tax competition through the benefits guaranteed by the Government brought to Itapetinga, the footwear business group Vulcabrás/Azaleia. This group, since 1998, implemented the headquarters of industries in the industrial district of the municipality, and other 18 branch industries were installed in municipalities next to Itapetinga, forming a base of footwear production whose articulation happened only between headquarters and branch offices. This organizational structure of Vulcabrás /Azaleia group remained active until 2012, with approximately 13.000 jobs per month that generated a payroll of R$ 7.896.912,00 and a production of 18 million / pairs of shoes / year. From this period, the others 18 branch industries were disabled in the adjacent municipalities to Itapetinga-BA. The decommissioning of these industries led to the dismissal of more than 8.000 employees, which resulted in a severe local / regional and economic crisis. The company Vulcabrás / Azaleia pays the minimum wage fixed in Brazil to its workers in the state of Bahia, while it pays for the same working process about 23.1% and 19.0% more in states like Rio Grande do Sul e São Paulo. Adding to the high job turnover and to the low union representation, the capital accumulation without major constraints between capital and labor. The conclusion is that the socio- spatial implications from the installation and operation of the company Vulcabrás / Azaleia in Itapetinga-BA resulted in a "precarious economic growth" which is also uncertain, vulnerable and shows "an expiration date". Despite the generating of jobs and income on a large scale, the way the attraction and retention of these companies happens in the state of Bahia does not promote the socioeconomic emancipation and autonomy of the worker. And also it does not promote the local/ regional development proclaimed by the government discourse, due to the enclave economy created from the missing of productive synergies. Keywords: Shoe industries. Tax-credit incentives. Industrial location. Precarious economic growth.

    U. S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE DANIEL C. ROPER, Secretary NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS LYMAN J. BRIGGS, Director CIRCULAR OF THE NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS C419 SHOE CONSTRUCTIONS By Roy C. Bowker eau of Standardt, APR 1 1938 UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE WASHINGTON : 1938 For sale by tlie Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C. Price 10 cents PREFACE Shoes are an important item in the budget of every family. Much general information is available concerning shoes and a multiplicity of types can be purchased over a wide price range. However, methods for use in evaluating the quality and performance of shoes are lacking. Research work on shoes is being conducted at the National Bureau of Standards for the purpose of developing quality and performance standards in terms of value to the individual consumer. A part of the problem has to do with the influence of the type of construction on the ability of the shoe to hold its shape under simulated service conditions. This circular presents the results of a study of the different methods of construction in common use. A review of the literature issued by the trade organizations has shown that there are at least 40 types of shoe construction, each of which is described briefly in this circular and listed under 8 main classes. Comments on the performance of shoes and the value to the con¬ sumer of construction identification marks on shoes are included. Lyman J. Briggs, Director. ir SHOE CONSTRUCTIONS By Roy C. Bowker ABSTRACT This circular contains brief descriptions of 40 individual shoe constructions and discusses their classification under 8 main classes; welt, McKay, Littleway, turn, stitchdown, nailed, cemented, and moccasin.

About Us Those who know leather, also know the vital importance of decisions taken while choosing hides bearing the end product in mind. Making shoes is another story, altogether. The similarity between tanning of a hide and the making of a shoe is the deep personal involvement necessary to produce quality goods. Shoe making today, has evolved into a complex science from the art that it was until the middle of the last century. The traditional image of a Chinese workman bent over his last no more sits comfortably in the consumer's mind. Shoe-making has definitely become more complex and undoubtedly hi-tech. Natural skills and latest technologies for making comfortable and durable footwear are now seen as complementing and supplementing each other .One without the other is inadequate. A tour of the factory would reveal, to the discerning eye, all the ingredients to make high performance and aesthetically appealing footwear are installed and in-use. If full leather sole is needed the requisite technology is available. And if Genuine Hand-made Goodyear-welt and Hand- stitched down were sought the wherewithal to make them is also indigenous to the factory. A footwear expert will see a well-planned unit, housing advanced, versatile and painstakingly-maintained machinery, run by dedicated, skilled personnel, who obviously take pride in producing footwear that, as per their expertise, and their company's policy, should set industry standards.
