Abstract
In this article, we will discuss public development policies for Amazon. In the first moment, the highlight will be natural
rubber, both in the first and in the second phase, when the resumption of its production will occur, which, at that mo-
ment, became known as “Battle of rubber”. Subsequently, public development policies will have a new direction, which
will include the creation of several bodies that will be part of the infrastructure to be used for the Amazon development
program, during the period of the Vargas government and, especially, after the military coup d’état.
Keywords: Battle of the rubber. Public Policies. Developmentalism. Amazon.
