Lula
The first – and long-awaited – major biography of Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva Lula is among the greatest political figures in Brazilian history. The only president in the country with a working-class background, combined with a party that was profoundly original in its roots, he exercised charismatic power and influence in a more lasting way than any other public figure in the republican period. Since 2011, Fernando Morais, one of Brazil's leading writers, has gained direct, frank and frequent access to Lula. To these dozens of hours of testimonies, he has added a reporter's flair and captivating prose to compose a biography that paints a picture in all its grandeur and complexity. In a narrative that makes use of flashforwards and flashbacks to maintain an electrifying pace, Morais goes from Lula's childhood to the annulment of his convictions, in 2021, passing through the new unionism, the ABC strikes, the foundation of the PT and the first election campaign.

Transforming Brazil
In this book, Rafael R. Ioris critically revisits the postwar context in Brazil to reexamine traditional questions and notions pertaining to the nature of Latin America’s political culture and institutions. It was in this period that the region lived some of its most intense and successful experiences of fast economic growth, which was paradoxically marred by heightened ideological divisions, political disruptions, and the emergence of widespread authoritarian rule. Combining original sources of political, diplomatic, intellectual, cultural, and labor histories, Ioris provides a comprehensive history of the fruitful debates concerning national development in postwar Brazil, a time when the...
Juscelino Kubitschek
O perfil parlamentar de Juscelino Kubitschek apresenta a vida de um dos mais brilhantes políticos brasileiros, que foi deputado federal, senador, prefeito de Belo Horizonte, governador de Minas Gerais e presidente da República. A obra em texto agradável e fluente redigido pelas mãos habilidosas de Ronaldo Costa Couto foi organizada em duas partes: na primeira traz toda a vida de Kubitschek, com uma linha do tempo, frases de autoria do político, frases sobre JK de autoria de várias personalidades e um caderno iconográfico. Na segunda parte, uma seleção cuidadosa de discursos contextualizados historicamente e outros documentos significativos, como o testamento de Juscelino. Neste livro o leitor encontrará a trajetória deste mineiro carismático, visionário, otimista, corajoso até o limite da inconsequência, que perseguiu incansavelmente o projeto de nação vibrante e progressista que ele sonhou alto e procurou dar forma com a construção de Brasília. Um dos mais marcantes presidentes do país.
