内容説明
After 21 years of military rule, Brazil returned to democracy in 1985. Over the past decade and a half, Brazilians in the Nova Republica (New Republic) have struggled with a range of diverse challenges that have tested the durability and quality of the young democracy. How well have they succeeded? To what entent can we say that Brazilian democracy has consolidated? What actors, institutions and processes have emerged as most salient over the past 15 years? More than a decade has passed since the last collaborative effort to examine the regime changes in Brazil, and no work in English has yet provided a comprehensive appraisal of Brazilian democracy in the period since 1985. Covering the full period of the New Republic from Presidents Sarney to Cardoso, "Democratic Brazil" brings together twelve scholars, the "next generation of Brazilianists", with wide-ranging specialties including institutional analysis, state autonomy, federalism and decentralization, economic management and business-state relations, the military, the Catholic Church and the new religious pluralism, social movements, the left, regional integration, demographic change, and human rights and the rule of law.
Each chapter focuses on a crucial process or actor in the New Republic, with emphasis on its relationship to democratic consolidation. The volume also contains a comprehensive bibliography on Brazilian politics and society since 1985. Prominent Brazilian historian Thomas Skidmore has contributed a foreword to the volume. Written in a clear, accessible style, the book is ideally suited for use in upper-level undergraduate courses and graduate seminars on Latin American politics and development.
