  • 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.

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.

DOI – http://dx.doi.org/10.22409/contracampo.v37i2.1108 Abstract The tense relationship between media and politics in Brazil is well known by specialized literature. Getúlio Vargas, João Goulart and Fernando Collor are examples of presidents who did not finish their mandates and who suffered resistance from the press. This article argues that this history of the media in destabilization processes remains current. The hypothesis was tested from the observation of 34 editorials of Brazil's main print newspapers, during Dilma Rousseff's impeachment in 2016 and the opening of Michel Temer's investigation in 2017.

  • Understanding Brazil's Recurring Rocky Road for Leftist
    Understanding Brazil’s Recurring Rocky Road for Leftist Presidents By Mitch Rogers, Research Associate at the Council on Hemispheric Affairs On January 18, 2017, twelve Democratic congresspersons from the U.S. House of Representatives signed a letter addressed to the Ambassador of Brazil to the United States, Sergio Silva do Amaral. The letter expressed “deep concern regarding the current state of democracy and human rights in Brazil,” continuing on to accuse the political factions behind last year’s impeachment of democratically-elected President Dilma Rousseff of protecting corrupt politicians, passing hugely unpopular policies, and attacking political opponents. i Specifically, the letter suggests that former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has been unjustly targeted by both media outlets and judge Sergio Moro due to his continuous political popularity and leadership of Brazil’s Workers’ Party (PT). On January 13, a similar letter was signed in the United Kingdom by various members of Parliament and distributed via the Guardian.ii The letter refers to ongoing persecution against Lula, which began early last year. On March 4, 2016, Lula was detained and questioned by police on charges of corruption. Given there was no reason to believe that the former president would not have gone in for questioning peacefully, many interpreted the “unnecessarily spectacular,” highly- publicized, and forced deposition as a political attack to discredit Lula.iii A week later, São Paulo prosecutors presented weak evidence for charges of money laundering in an attempt to produce a warrant to justify Lula’s “preventative arrest.”iv According to the prosecutors, Lula had not properly declared his ownership of a luxury penthouse at a beach resort in Guarajá, São Paulo.

  • Liberal Bias in the Brazilian Energy Policy: the Transition from Temer to Bolsonaro
    Submission number 321 to 7th ELAEE 2019: DO NOT DISTRIBUTE! LIBERAL BIAS IN THE BRAZILIAN ENERGY POLICY: THE TRANSITION FROM TEMER TO BOLSONARO Vinícius Teixeira Lima Universidade de Brasília +55 61 982643144, [email protected] Overview Brazilian politics has undergone profound changes in recent years. Dilma Rousseff's impeachment, occurred in 2016, marked the end of an interventionist cycle for the energy sector. Michel Temer's administration was characterized by the extension of the special customs procedure for goods destined for oil activity (Repetro), the opening of pre-salt exploration for foreign companies and the political effort to privatize Eletrobras’ distributors. In the oil segment, Temer’s administration realized, between 2016 and 2018, two bidding rounds for blocks of oil, four sharing rounds for pre-salt, one round of marginal accumulations and also the opening of the permanent round for remaining areas. This period remarks the end of the exclusive participation of Petrobras in pre-salt oil fields, changed by the Law No. 13,365/16. In the following year, the Senate Bill 218/17 reduced the local content for oil exploration – in other words, reduced the percentual of goods and services destined to oil activities to be acquired in the national market. In this meantime, the regulatory agency for oil and gas (ANP) introduced a calendar of scheduled rounds, providing security and previsibility capacity to companies potentially interested in exploring Brazilian oil. At the tributary level, the government won a congressional dispute to extend the validity of the special customs procedure for goods destined for oil activity (Repetro) until 2040, which was previously valid until 2022.
