That’s what Rio de Janeiro is for. I But if you’re a seasoned traveller who tends to shun traditional tourism hot spots for urban adventures off the beaten trail, then put Brazil’s biggest city on your bucket list. A sprawling metropolitan area of nearly 20 million people, São Paulo is sometimes referred to as the New York of South America. While the comparison may be a bit overstated, Brazil’s business capital boasts a rich cultural life and restaurant scene that rival the world’s premier cities. (Map: https://goo.gl/maps/3UJKd) It is also Brazil’s most global city, with long- established immigrant communities from Portugal, Spain, Italy, Japan and the Middle East. More recently it has attracted waves of immigrants from west Africa, China, Haiti and neighbouring Spanish-speaking countries such as Bolivia and Peru, giving it a distinctly inter- national vibe felt nowhere else in Latin America. Antonio Carlos Jobim, the late singer-song- writer who was the godfather of bossa nova, once famously said, “Brazil is not for beginners.” That rings particularly true in São Paulo, whose sheer size, helter-skelter urban blueprint and epic traf- fic jams can wear down even the most experi- enced globetrotter. But that chaos is also São Paulo’s allure. Whereas Rio’s natural beauty overwhelms the senses, São Paulo plays hard to get. It takes time and tenacity to discover its many charms, but once you do, you’ll feel like you’ve joined a select club of travellers who have cracked one of the world’s toughest cities. Soccer fans will get a chance to do so in June and July, when São Paulo will hold six World Cup games at a brand-new stadium on the city’s long- neglected east side. In addition to the opening match between Brazil and Croatia, the stadium will host Uruguay vs England, Netherlands vs Chile, South Korea vs Belgium, plus a Round of 16 showdown and a semi-final. Here are tips for getting the most out of a trip to São Paulo. Restaurants Galore What São Paulo lacks in beaches and beauty, it makes up for in food. From world-class haute cui- sine to simple but satisfying lunch buffets where you pay by the weight of your serving, there is something for just about every appetite and wal- let size. True to its immigrant roots, São Paulo has long been known for Italian cantinas, Japanese sushi bars and authentic Lebanese food. Until recently, however, one cuisine that the city’s restaurant scene largely lacked was, oddly enough, Brazilian. That changed in the last decade, thanks to a group of chefs whose passion for local ingredients Brazil’s beachless spawned a Brazilian food revolution that put São Paulo on the global gourmet map. At the forefront of this movement is Alex Atala, a tattoo-loving celebrity chef whose res- taurant D.O.M. in the swanky Jardins district metropolis is a ranks sixth on the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list sponsored by Britain’s Restaurant magazine. If you have deep pockets and you’re lucky enough to secure a reservation, D.O.M.’s eight-course tast- ing menu will take your palate on a tour of the Amazon. (www.domrestaurante.com.br) foodie’s paradise For a more down-to-earth Brazilian food expe- rience, try Tordesilhas about six blocks away. This place serves up regional classics. If you’re in a group, get the barreado, a succulent beef feast that simmers in a sealed clay pot for 14 hours.

  • Islamism Within a Civil War: the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood's Struggle For
    RETHINKING POLITICAL ISLAM SERIES August 2015 Islamism within a civil war: The Syrian Muslim Brotherhood’s struggle for survival WORKING PAPER Raphaël Lefèvre, Carnegie Middle East Center SUMMARY: After 30 years in exile outside of Syria, the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood has become an important component of the western-backed Syrian opposition. Despite its influence, the expansion and radicalization of the Islamist scene in Syria challenges the legitimacy of the Brotherhood’s gradualist approach and constrains its presence on the ground. About this Series: The Rethinking Political Islam series is an innovative effort to understand how the developments following the Arab uprisings have shaped—and in some cases altered—the strategies, agendas, and self-conceptions of Islamist movements throughout the Muslim world. The project engages scholars of political Islam through in-depth research and dialogue to provide a systematic, cross-country comparison of the trajectory of political Islam in 12 key countries: Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Syria, Jordan, Libya, Pakistan, as well as Malaysia and Indonesia. This is accomplished through three stages: A working paper for each country, produced by an author who has conducted on-the-ground research and engaged with the relevant Islamist actors. A reaction essay in which authors reflect on and respond to the other country cases. A final draft incorporating the insights gleaned from the months of dialogue and discussion. The Brookings Institution is a nonprofit organization devoted to independent research and policy solutions. Its mission is to conduct high-quality, independent research and, based on that research, to provide innovative, practical recommendations for policymakers and the public.

  • Framing the Syrian Uprising
    Discourses of a Revolution: Framing the Syrian uprising Emma LUNDGREN-JÖRUM* Abstract This article compares how the Syrian uprising was framed by the Syr- ian regime as well as some of the major oppositional organizations between March and November 2011. As expected in conflict the ver- sions told differ. The regime stresses that Syria is the victim of a foreign conspiracy where armed terrorists are killing civilians and security per- sonnel alike. The opposition, on the other hand, argues that the upris- ing is a domestic affair, initiated by ordinary people. The article further seeks to give an overview of the regime’s and the opposition’s views of the post-uprising Syria and their respective ideas of the best way to get there. The article argues that the Syrian opposition has, by and large, maintained a unified position. The major division is not, as could perhaps be expected, between the internal and the external opposition but between the “older” internal opposition and the rest. The article also argues that minority questions are not substantially dealt with by either the opposition or the regime. Both sides focus on the Kurds but effectively avoid other minorities. Keywords: Arab Spring, Discourse, Syrian National Council, Uprising, Opposition, Bashar al-Asad. Bir Devrim Üzerine Söylemler: Suriye Ayaklanmasının Çerçevesini Çizmek Özet Bu makale, Mart ile Kasım 2011 tarihleri arasında Suriye ayaklanma- sının, bazı ana muhalefet örgütlerinin yanısıra Suriye rejimi tarafından da nasıl görüldüğünü ve çerçevelendirildiğini karşılaştırmaktadır. Çatış- malarda bekleneceği üzere yorumlarda farklılıklar söz konusudur.

There are few places as magnificent and varied as Brazil. On the one hand, it has been blessed with the most beautiful beaches and breathtaking natural wonders, on the other, it has produced visionary architects such as Oscar Niemeyer, Lucio Costa and Affonso Reidy who have made Brazilian modernism world-renowned. In addition to designing acclaimed buildings such as the Ministry of Health and Culture and the Museum of Modern Art in Rio de Janeiro, these visionaries planned the modernist city of Brasília from the ground up. As an emerging BRICS state, and since hosting the 2014 FIFA World Cup and the 2016 Summer Olympics, Brazil has received more attention in recent years. These events have been the impetus behind many new ambitious infrastructure projects. Our journey takes us to the four major Brazilian cities, each one known for its architectural and cultural characteristics.

By analyzing a selection of administrative legal Preservação e Restauro Urbano: intervenções em sítios processes of the CONDEPHAAT (Council of Defense of the Historical, Archaeological, Artistic and Tourist históricos industriais, 2013. Heritage of the State of São Paulo, an organ created in 1968), a gradual perception of urban dimension in studies on the preservation of industrial heritage has been identified since the mid-1970s, despite the limitations of landmarking originally intended for the protection of isolated buildings. From the analysis of some administrative legal process of preservation of São Paulo’s industrial heritage, the main aim is to emphasize the presence and breadth of the urban and territorial issue along the CONDEPHAAT trajectory and highlight the ways of understanding urban relations inherent in industrial heritage in each historical period and the possibilities for deepening this recent debate.
