Resumo: This paper implements a wavelets-based analysis of the Phillips curve hypothesis — as formulated by Friedman and Phelps — for the Brazilian economy, concerning the last thirty years. We provide an introductory discussion on Phillips curve's main arguments and an exploratory data analysis for the variables under consideration: prices, unemployment and real wages. In the sequel, we estimate variances and correlation structures between these aggregates through wavelets. Our findings reject the Phillips curve hypothesis for the Brazilian economy in the short run while suggest that it does hold in the long run. Finally, the correlation structure obtained in the paper captures particular aspects of Brazilian economic policy within the period.

Este artigo desenvolve uma análise da hipótese da curva de Phillips — de acordo com a formulação de Phelps-Friedman — para a economia brasileira dos últimos 30 anos através da metodologia de ondaletas. Uma introdução às ideias fundamentais do argumento de Phillips é seguida por uma breve exposição dos principais desenvolvimentos teóricos no tema e uma discussão acerca do recente panorama da pesquisa no Brasil. Em seguida, uma análise exploratória das variáveis em questão é empreendida. Por fim, são apresentadas estruturas de correlação e variâncias estimadas através da metodologia de ondatelas, desagregando assim efeitos de curto e longo prazo. Nossos resultados rejeitam a hipótese da curva de Phillips para a economia brasileira no curto prazo enquanto sugere a sua validade no longo prazo. Ainda discutem-se aspectos da pol+itica econômica nacional evidenciados pela metodologia de análise empregada.
