About this product

Product Information

This book re-examines the relationship between development strategy and political regime in twentieth-century Brazil. The first part of the study examines the beginning in the 1920s and 1930s of the centralized regime and state-centered development model later challenged in the 1980s, taking into account the economic and political role of Sao Paulo relative to the federal government. The analysis provides a distinctive account of the regime ruling Brazil from the 1930s through the 1980s. The second part focuses on the process of economic and political change in the 1980s and 1990s, paying particular attention to the Cardoso administration.

Reviews
A perceptive analysis of what was required to alter the Brazilian economy in the 1990s, tracing the move away from developmentalism to deregulation. By clearly demonstrating potential conflicts between democracy and the emerging political party system, Font allows readers to understand what has made the process of achieving a free economy in a free political arena so difficult. This is an informed, sophisticated, yet highly readable account greatly enhanced by appendixes containing capsule histories of all stabilization plans after 1985. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All Brazilianists (including undergraduates) and Latin Americanists in general., Font's main contribution in this book is that it summarizes Brazilian development during the Cardoso government in a single volume. Development scholars and Latin Americanists as well as sociologists should find it of special interest. The book is also accessible to undergraduates, who are likely to better understand the challenges and experiences of development and democratization by examining the Brazilian exapmle., In this useful preliminary evaluation of Fernando Henrique Cardoso's eight years in office, Font argues that the reformist Brazilian president understood both the importance of executive leadership and the need to construct a broad political coalition to promote change.
