Chapter 6 in External Constraints on Economic Policy in Brazil, 1889–1930, 1988, pp 119-159 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The radical economic policy changes of 1924 did not affect the compromises implicit in the formal alliance made between the political establishments of São Paulo and Minas Gerais in 1922. In May 1925, Antonio Carlos went to São Paulo as the government’s envoy and settled the terms of the presidential succession. As the natural outcome, Washington Luis, former Governor of São Paulo, was appointed as the government’s — and the only — presidential candidate in the March 1926 elections, and this was confirmed without much ado at the regional parties’ convention in September.1
