Produktbeschreibung

For decades F. H. Cardoso has been among the most influential of Latin American scholars, his writings on globalization, dependency, and politics having reached a world-wide audience. This book, the third by Cardoso to appear in English, is the first to incorporate essays written during his tenure as president of Brazil. The transformation of Cardoso's economic and political approach is nowhere better documented than in this broad-ranging collection of writings that span Cardoso's early theoretical work through his pragmatic agenda for Brazil in a rapidly changing world economy.

Rezensionen

This volume should be of particular interest to Latin Americanists and others interested in globalization and particularly its impact on developing nations. Public and academic library collecions, upper-division undergraduate and up. CHOICE A useful account of the remarkable academic and political career of Brazilian President Fernando Henrique Cardoso. Covering almost 30 years, beginning with Cardoso's academic work, then his political statements as a senator and government minister, and finally his presidential speeches. Foreign Affairs This fusion of a strong belief in scientifically based academic analysis with political malleability is one of the most fascinating aspects of Cardoso's performance as president.
