Brazil: from a Global Example of Food Security to Back on the Hunger Map
Brazil: from a global example of food security to back on the Hunger Map Ariel Sepúlveda Sciences Po / PSIA Leaving the Hunger Map was a historical milestone in Brazilian politics, one that is currently under threat due to major cutbacks on social-economic policies in past years. The political instability, along with an economic crisis that the country faces has built the path to where it is now: with 10,3 mi people in food insecurity. This reveals a great contradiction, as Brazil allocates a large part of its food production for export, being the third-largest food producer in the world. In 2014, Brazil was commended internationally, for its great efforts in combating hunger and poverty. For the first time, the country was not featured on the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation’s (UN/FAO) Hunger Map, reducing food insecurity by 84% in 24 years. These promising numbers were a result of several food security policies, which improved food access, provided income generation, and supported food production by small farmers. Lula’s pink tide government Former President Lula in 2003, in the speech in which he launched Fome Zero. Photo: Ricardo Stuckert / Given the context of redemocratisation and decentralised social policies (Angell 1998), Luís Inácio Lula da Silva (Lula) of the Partido dos Trabalhadores – PT (Workers’ Party) chose the 1 politics around poverty and hunger as the central narrative of his candidature. When elected, he transformed the fight against hunger into a state obligation. The first and most famous policy was the Fome Zero (Zero Hunger), which was composed of cash grants, nutritional policies, and development projects that mobilised governmental and nongovernmental actors. -

Construction Companies Pressure for Credit and Low Interest Rate
(http://globo.com) g1 (http://g1.globo.com) ge gshow (http://gshow.globo.com) famosos vídeos (http://globoplay.globo.com) Print () 12:00 AM (GMT 03:00) – Jan 11 2017 Construction companies pressure for credit and low interest rate By Raymundo Costa and Andrea Jubé | Brasília Negotiations between construction companies involved in the Petrobras corruption scandal and the government about the Investment Partnerships Program (PPI) have stalled. Valor has learned that the companies started talks as if nothing had happened in the last two years, when the investigations of Operation Car Wash upended the industry’s relations with the government, and were sharply rebuked by PPI Secretary Moreira Franco. The companies made an extensive list of requests, but the main one is aimed at the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES). Shut out of bank loans, the companies want subsidized credit from the development bank. They also want to renegotiate contracts signed when Dilma Rousseff was still president, due to the recession's effects. The government responded by asking them to forfeit their concessions if they are unable to pay. Companies pretended they didn’t understand the initial message and redoubled efforts in the last few days, resorting to patriotic arguments – “Brazil is in crisis,” the “nation” must start investing again and other similar claims. During one such talk, Mr. Franco, who is also under investigation by Car Wash, responded by saying the companies apparently had not understood that Brazil changed and the usual practices of before have become unacceptable now. The construction companies even said they may not bid in the PPI auctions under current conditions. -
Getúlio Vargas E O Caudilhismo Getulio Vargas
Fronteiras: Revista de História Getúlio Vargas e o Caudilhismo – Rafael Augustus Sêga GETÚLIO VARGAS E O CAUDILHISMO GETULIO VARGAS AND CAUDILISM Rafael Augustus Sêga1 RESUMO: O objetivo principal do presente artigo é mostrar motivos pelos quais as possíveis origens “platinas” ou influências “caudilhescas” de Getúlio Dornelles Vargas não se sustentam como determinantes na sua formação política. Para tanto, iniciamos o artigo com uma discussão conceitual sobre “caudilhismo” nas Ciências Sociais; passamos ao tratamento do assunto por correntes historiográficas brasileiras e, principalmente, pela discussão acadêmica sobre a ocorrência ou não desse fenômeno político em solo nacional. Os procedimentos posteriores percorreram uma breve exposição sobre a formação da região de nascimento de Getúlio Vargas, suas origens familiares e uma resumida trajetória pessoal. A partir dessa explanação, passamos à uma análise de fontes primárias (discursos oficiais) emitidas por Getúlio Vargas sobre esse assunto, com intuito de verificar a importância do assunto do caudilhismo em sua atuação pública. Palavras-Chave: Brasil Império; Caudilhismo; Coronelismo; Castilhismo-borgismo; História do Rio Grande do Sul; Getúlio Vargas; Partido Republicano Rio-Grandense. ABSTRACT: The main objective of this article is to show why the possible “Platine” origins or “caudillo” (warlord) influences of Getulio Dornelles Vargas are not hold as determining factors in his political formation. Therefore, we started the article with a conceptual discussion about “caudillism” in the Social Sciences, after that, we passed to the treatment of the subject by the Brazilian historiographical currents and, mainly, by academic discussion about the presence or absence of this political phenomenon in Brazil. The subsequent procedures passed by a brief exhibit of Getulio Vargas’s birth region formation, his family origins and a short personal history. -

Combating Corruption in Latin America: Congressional Considerations

In the past few years, 11 presidents and former presidents in Latin America have been forced from June S. Beittel, office, jailed, or are under investigation for corruption. As in previous years, Transparency Coordinator International’s Corruption Perceptions Index covering 2018 found that the majority of Analyst in Latin American respondents in several Latin American nations believed that corruption was increasing. Several Affairs analysts have suggested that heightened awareness of corruption in Latin America may be due to several possible factors: the growing use of social media to reveal violations and mobilize Peter J. Meyer citizens, greater media and investor scrutiny, or, in some cases, judicial and legislative Specialist in Latin investigations. Moreover, as expectations for good government tend to rise with greater American Affairs affluence, the expanding middle class in Latin America has sought more integrity from its politicians. U.S. congressional interest in addressing corruption comes at a time of this heightened rejection of corruption in public office across several Latin American and Caribbean Clare Ribando Seelke countries. Specialist in Latin American Affairs Whether or not the perception that corruption is increasing is accurate, it is nevertheless fueling civil society efforts to combat corrupt behavior and demand greater accountability. Voter Maureen Taft-Morales discontent and outright indignation has focused on bribery and the economic consequences of Specialist in Latin official corruption, diminished public services, and the link of public corruption to organized American Affairs crime and criminal impunity. -

I argue that Rousseff’s impeachment was facilitated by a conflation of two models of ‘corruption’ operating in Brazil, one legal-behavioural and the other religious-ontological. What happened in 2016 was a tacit conflation of these two models, along with their associated regimes for construing evidence of guilt. More specifically, congressional deliberations on Rousseff’s guilt allowed jurisprudential standards of evidence to be influenced by the evidential regime of the right-wing Fora Dilma (‘Out Dilma’) demonstrators. -
