| Summary: | The author hosted Clelio Campolina Diniz during the writing of his second dissertation, required of professors in Brazil, at Rutgers University’s Project on Regional and Industrial Economics in the 1990s and subsequently headed up a US National Science Foundation-funded international project on new industrial districts with Campolina and colleagues in Japan and South Korea. She co-wrote a subsequently published paper with Campolina for the Inter-American Development Bank and served for two months in 2008 at the Federal University of Minas Gerais’s (UFMG) Center for Transdisciplinary Studies. Campolina and the author are currently researching how development theory might be expanded to incorporate culture and environment, using a new contemporary art museum and botanical gardens, Inhotim, in Minas Gerais as a test case. During a month-long work session on the latter in 2017, the author interviewed Campolina extensively for this paper.
