Brazil Is Not For Amateurs: Patterns of Governance in the Land of "Jeitinho"
Who should read this book? I can't imagine anyone who would not enjoy and benefit from this insightful overview. Obviously, those with current or future business interests in Brazil should read it, as should anyone planning a visit. Students and scholars interested in the politics, governance or administration of any country, would benefit enormously from studying Belmiro's objective and skeptical methodology.
In our increasing global interdependence, this is a good time to enhance our knowledge of the political, economic, and social conditions in this giant of the southern hemisphere. Belmiro's astute analyses are presented in an optimistic, good humored style, reflecting a kind of "tough love". He appreciates and extols the virtues and potential of Brazil, but is not blind to its flaws, and leaves the reader with an intricate, balanced portrait of his lovely, rich and complex country.
