The economic crisis occurred alongside a political crisis that resulted in the [[Impeachment of Dilma Rousseff|impeachment of president Dilma Rousseff]]. These events combined caused mass popular dissatisfaction with the political system. The cause of the crisis was the aforementioned political crisis, as well as the [[Commodity price shocks#Second half of 2014|2014 commodity price shock]], which negatively affected Brazil's exports and reduced the entrance of foreign capital into the economy. However, the most important cause was internal, which is associated with economic measures that didn't achieve the expected results. Adopted in 2011, these measures are known as the ''{{ill|nova matriz econômica|pt|Nova matriz econômica|vertical-align=sup}}'' ("new economic matrix", in a free translation). During the economic crisis, high unemployment rates were reported throughout the country, and there was widespread uncertainty regarding Brazil's economic future following a series of political scandals.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://g1.globo.com/economia/noticia/pib-positivo-e-saida-tecnica-da-recessao-mas-recuperacao-e-incerta-entenda.ghtml|title=PIB positivo é 'saída técnica' da recessão, mas recuperação é incerta; entenda|date=2017-06-01|author=Darlan Alvarenga|access-date=5 June 2017|work=G1}}</ref> In the first quarter of 2017, Brazil's GDP rose by 1%.

Therefore, the new economic matrix was a set of measures to benefit the industrial sector, aiming to reduce the costs of national companies and increase competitiveness against foreign competition. However, the industry did not react. Industrial production, which had grown by 2.7% in 2010, declined by 0.9% and 3.7% in the following two years, damaging government revenue and, consequently, public investments.{{Sfn|Carvalho|2018|p=58}} [[File:CAE - Comissão de Assuntos Econômicos (16989641502).jpg|thumb|Joaquim Levy, Minister responsible for fiscal adjustment, in March 2015]] In an attempt to reverse the deterioration in public accounts due to falling revenue, a fiscal adjustment was implemented in 2014, which included highly recessive policies (i.e., aimed at reducing expenses and increasing taxes). These policies mainly involved cutting public expenses and investments, such as cuts to the [[Growth Acceleration Program]] (PAC). The adjustment continued throughout 2015. In that year, there was a sharp reduction in administered prices. (See section [[#Anticrisis measures|Anticrisis measures]].)

In 2015, among [[OECD]] countries, only [[Russia]] went through a recession. Even after the economic sanctions imposed by other countries due to the [[Russian military intervention in Ukraine (2014–present)|conflict in Ukraine]], Russia's GDP fell by only 4% in two years (2015 and 2016). Few other countries in this period were going through a recession, which reinforces the argument that the crisis in Brazil was mainly due to local causes.<ref name="book">{{Cite book|last=Carvalho|first=Laura|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XppWDwAAQBAJ|title=Valsa brasileira: Do boom ao caos econômico|date=2018-05-08|publisher=Editora Todavia S.A|isbn=978-85-93828-63-8|language=pt-BR}}</ref> In comparison to other crises in Brazil, it was verified that the 2014 crisis was not the deepest recession of Brazilian history, as previously thought. After the GDP values for 2015 and 2016 were reviewed by the [[Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics]] (IBGE), the economy shrank by 8.2% in the period, in contrast to the 8.5% in the 1981 recession. Despite the relative mildness, the crisis was prolonged, being followed by the slowest economic recovery in Brazilian history.<ref name="book" /> According to Codace (committee part of [[Fundação Getúlio Vargas]]), the 1981 crisis lasted nine economic quarters, reached its peak in the first quarter of 1983 and, since then, took seven quarters for the GDP the reach its pre-crisis level. Later, the 1989-1992 crisis lasted 11 quarters and the recovery time was the same: seven quarters. This crisis, however, had a lower intensity, with an accumulated decrease in the GDP of 7.7%.<ref name="book" /> In turn, Brazil's GDP after the 2014 crisis was expected to reach the pre-crisis level in 2022, according to an optimistic estimate, with 20 quarters of recovery in total. When taking into account both GDP and the employment rate, the recovery from this economic crisis would be measured as taking longer. In addition to the sluggish recovery, the new jobs will likely be of lower quality, including informal and autonomous labor.<ref name="book" /> == See also == * [[List of economic crises in Brazil]] *
