Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An essential guide to understanding the current crisis in Brazil. Brazil is currently facing its greatest crisis since democracy was wrested by workers and social movements from the generals in 1985 after a brutal twenty-one-year military dictatorship. In Brazil at the Precipice, Sean Purdy tells the story of how Brazil got here, starting in 2002, when the Workers’ Party (PT) came to power under its founder Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, overseeing a ten-year period of sustained economic growth in the context of a booming world market for Brazilian commodities. Purdy traces the government’s implementation of successful social programs, jobs creation and modest reduction of economic and social inequality. Yet, he shows, the PT maintained the dominant neoliberal economic framework and constructed dubious alliances with a range of centrist and right-wing parties in order to advance its political agenda and effectively tamed unions and social movements, guaranteeing the PT’s victory in four successive elections. Purdy’s engaging narrative brings us to the global economic crisis, which reached the country in 2012, and the point at which the PT’s success began to unravel: the government’s adoption of an outright neoliberal program of cutbacks that undermined their support. Conservative political parties and social movements launched a concerted attack against the government, focusing on a corruption scandal that snowballed in little more than a year to the impeachment of President Dilma Rouseff. In tracing the trajectory and defeat of the Workers’ Party experiment with socialist politics, Brazil at the Precipice offers us valuable lessons for the experiments of the future"--Publisher's description.

Book excerpt: Brazil has suddenly become a country of interest to the West, playing a critical role in global economic talks at the G20 and WTO, brokering North-South relations through its new international economic geography, and stepping into regional and global security questions through its activities in Haiti, Paraguay and the nuclear question in Iran.

Download or read book The Abolition of Slavery in Brazil written by David Baronov and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2000-06-30 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The persistence of a raced-based division of labor has been a compelling reality in all former slave societies in the Americas. One can trace this to nineteenth-century abolition movements across the Americas which did not lead to (and were not intended to result in) a transition from race-based slave labor to race-neutral wage labor for former slaves. Rather, the abolition of slavery led to the emergence of multi-racial societies wherein capital/labor relations were characterized by new forms of extra-market coercion that were explicitly linked to racial categories. Post-slavery Brazilian society is a classic example of this pattern. Working within the context of the origin of the wage labor category in classical political economy, Baronov begins by questioning the central role of wage-labor within capitalist production through an examination of key works by Smith, Ricardo, and Marx, as well as the historical conditions informing their analyses. The study then turns to the specific case of Brazil between 1850-1888, comparing the abolition of slavery in three Brazilian regions: the northeast sugar region, the Paraiba Valley, and Western Sao Paulo. Through this analysis, Baronov provides a critique of the dominant interpretation of abolition (as a transition from slave labor to wage labor) and suggests an alternative interpretation that places a greater emphasis on the role of non-wage labor forms and extra-market factors in the shaping of the post-slavery social order.
