Brazil

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 iul 2023
Brazil has long been an enigma to outsiders. Over the last two decades alone, Latin America's largest and most populous country has been celebrated as a vibrant new democracy with a powerful economy, and derided as a nation in complete disarray heading towards the status of a failed state. In this vibrant and smart book, Joel Wolfe tells the story of this "incomplete nation" and its two-hundred-year-old struggle to control its vast national territory and to fashion and maintain a functioning democracy against a backdrop of intense inequality, racial discrimination and regional rivalries. From independence to the abolition of slavery, scarring military dictatorship to the election of President Bolsonaro - the 'Tropical Trump', he weaves a rich portrait of a country fighting against the odds to overcome the long-standing and seemingly intractable problems that have, for most of its history, hindered national unity and development.
