Desenvolvimento
Chaffee (government, Saint Mary's College) uses a theoretical approach to investigate the connection between politics and economics in Brazil. He offers statistics and detailed case studies of the country's regimes in support of his hypothesis that economic growth in Brazil leads to changes that support the governmental regime. Topics include the country's perpetually high inflation, the New Republic's strategy of growth based on import substitution, Jose Sarney's efforts to restructure politics with a new constitution, and the Real Plan.

Media Power and Democratization in Brazil
In this book, Porto analyzes the role of TV Globo in the democratization of Brazil. TV Globo, one of the world's largest media conglomerates, has a dominant position in Brazil's communications landscape. It also exports telenovelas to more than 130 countries and has established joint ventures with transnational media conglomerates. Beginning in the mid-1990s, TV Globo began a process of "opening," replacing its authoritarian model of journalism with a more independent reporting style. Representations of Brazil in prime time telenovelas have also shifted. Given this shift, Porto considers some of the following questions: •What explains these changes in Brazil's most powerful media company? •How are they related to processes of political and social democratization? •How did TV Globo's opening affect Brazil's emerging democracy, especially in terms of the quality of political accountability mechanisms? Porto uses the Brazilian case of TV Globo to analyze the larger links between democratization, civil society mobilization, and media change in transitional societies.
Brazilian Propaganda
In Brazilian Propaganda, Nina Schneider examines the various modes of official, and unofficial, propaganda used by an authoritarian regime. Such propaganda is commonly believed to be political, praising military figures and openly legitimizing state repression. However, Brazil's military dictatorship (1964-1985) launched seemingly apolitical official campaigns that were aesthetically appealing and ostensibly aimed to "enlighten" and "civilize." Some were produced as civilian-military collaborations and others were conducted by privately owned media, but undergirding them all was the theme of a country aspiring to become a developed nation. Focusing primarily on visual media, Schneider demons...
Brazil Apart
Leading English-language account of the fall of Lula’s Workers’ Party and rise of Bolsonaro and the New Right What does Brazil’s lurch to the hard right under Jair Bolsonaro portend for Latin America’s largest country, and how has it come about? Always something of a world unto itself, Brazil became, under the Workers’ Party from 2003 to 2016, “the theatre of a socio-political drama without equivalent in any other major state.” Bucking the global trend towards a tighter neoliberalism, former steelworker Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva swept aside the broken promises of previous years to invest in social transfers, defying vituperations in the Brazilian media to become the most popular ruler of the age. But in a second spectacular reversal, a parliamentary coup d’état against Lula’s successor—backed by forces in the judiciary and a youthful New Right—has been consolidated by Bolsonaro’s 2018 capture of the Planalto. With the PT’s lodestar now behind bars, a weighing up of his legacy, and of the contrasting Bolsonaro regime, is urgently needed. Brazil Apart is the sharp-edged, comprehensive analytic account required.

O papel do jornalismo sem papel
Como será o papel do Jornalismo sem papel, aberto, virtual, sem lenço nem documento? O mar de informações em que ele navega já é imenso. Muito diferente das tripas de telex que desaguavam nas redações do século XX e que já deixavam atordoados os editores, aqueles que escolhiam o que devia ou não ser publicado. Fora, claro, os censores de plantão, que tinham um trabalho mais simples: cortavam o que os ditadores impunham – hoje, os censores são mais tímidos, mas que existem, existem. Essa espécie de comunicação compartilhada que a internet proporciona é a grande questão que se coloca entre todos os comunicadores. Mas não apenas entre eles. Os proprietários dos meios de c...
