FIRST. Existing books on Brazil offer primarily informative descriptions of Brazilian institutions and fail to provide an analytically informed account of the functioning of Brazilian political institutions and of their outcomes. While offering a case study of Brazil, the book situates the Brazilian case in a broad comparative perspective and in light of the current scholarly discussion in comparative politics and development economics. CONCEPTUALLY RIGOROUS.COMPARATIVE.SURGE OF INTEREST IN BRAZIL IN GLOBAL MEDIA IN RECENT YEARS.

Beschreibung

This book offers the first conceptually rigorous analysis of the political and institutional underpinnings of Brazil's recent rise. Using Brazil as a case study in multiparty presidentialism, the authors argue that Brazil's success stems from the combination of a constitutionally strong president and a robust system of checks and balances.
