This book examines US President Barack Obama’s characterizations in the Brazilian media, with a specific focus on political cartoons and internet memes. Brazilians celebrate their country as a racial democracy; thus the US works as its nemesis. The rise of a black president to the office of the most prominent country in the global, political, and economic landscape led some analysts to postulate that the US was living in a post-racial era. President Obama’s election also had a tremendous impact on the imaginary of the African Diaspora, and this volume investigates how the election of the first black US president complicates Brazilians’ own racial discourses. By focusing on three events—Barack Obama's election in 2008, his visit to Brazil in March 2011, and the aftermath of the US espionage on the Brazilian government in 2013—Emanuelle K. F. Oliveira-Monte analyzes Barack Obama's shifting portrayals that confirm and challenge Brazilian racial conceptions projected upon his figure.

In this hugely praised narrative, New York Times reporter Larry Rohter takes the reader on a lively trip through Brazil's history, culture, and booming economy. Going beyond the popular stereotypes of samba, supermodels, and soccer, he shows us a stunning and varied landscape--from breathtaking tropical beaches to the lush and dangerous Amazon rainforest--and how a complex and vibrant people defy definition. He charts Brazil's amazing jump from a debtor nation to one of the world's fastest growing economies, unravels the myth of Brazil's sexually charged culture, and portrays in vivid color the underbelly of impoverished favelas. With Brazil leading the charge of the Latin American decade, this critically acclaimed history is the authoritative guide to understanding its meteoric rise.

Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Region: Middle- and South America, grade: 7.5, University of Amsterdam (CEDLA), course: Brazil: Democracy, Citizenship and Sustainable Development, language: English, abstract: Since almost 19 months, Brazil has a new president: Dilma Rousseff, the first woman to take office and the first time that the president is not a candidate from the opposition to the former government. Her success is mainly attributed to the fact that Dilma, Lula da Silva’s former cabinet chef, was advertised as “candidate of the Lulism” (de Carvalho Cruz Pires, 2011, p. 1) who could not run a third consecutive time himself due to legislation (“Lula da Silva”, 2011). Reports supposed first that Dilma would merely be an “interim president” till Lula could run again for elections in 2014 (Souza, 2011, p. 87). But soon, Dilma reached popularity rates of 77% which is even higher than the rates of Lula in his second year of presidency (Comenalli, 2012) who once has been called “the most popular politician on earth” by Barack Obama (“Obama: Lula is”, 2009). Even though several reports point out that while essentially sticking to the main points of her predecessor (Sader 2011, Löwy 2012) Dilma managed to step out of Lula’s shadow (Bryson 2011). However, a thorough analysis of her first 19 months is still missing. By examining her stand to various global issues and her diplomatic strategy, the following will discuss Dilma's role in foreign affairs, especially her standpoint in comparison to her predecessor Lula. The retrospective on Lula is especially important when considering the statement of Richard Bourne who points out that in the presidential constitutional republic of Brazil, its citizens align themselves much more with a candidate than with a party (2008, p.213). Before going into achievements and plans in foreign policy, a short historical overview of Dilma's political career and her visions, both nationally and internationally, will be given. Neither the comparison nor the review of Dilma's foreign policy agenda is meant to be all-encompassing but should rather be seen as an exploration of Dilma's first 19 months as President with the aim to answer the question what other nations can expect from Dilma for the rest of her term.

Prize-winning work of investigative journalism by Glenn Greenwald, José Casado and Roberto Kaz revealed how the US intelligence services have spied on Brazilian authorities. Following huge amount of data released by Edward Snowden, they exposed how the NSA has tapped phones and infiltrated computer systems to gain access to crucial information from Brazil´s biggest companies, such as Petrobras, government officials, diplomats, and even to President Dilma Rousseff´s mobile phone. In this ebook, José Casado goes deeper into the process and tells the story of the American intrusion from its origins. It is a rivetting account, full of surprising details. This ebook also brings articles by O Globo´s correspondents in the US and in Europe, drawing a bigger picture of the impact of Snowden´s revelations.

Raised in a shack in the Brazilian northeast by a single mother, Lula da Silva rose from a working-class background to become a union leader, organizer of Brazil's Workers' Party, and in time, the most popular president of Brazil. In admiration, Barack Obama called Lula "the most popular politician on Earth"-perhaps a fitting title for the man who finished eight years as Brazil's president with popularity ratings above 80%. As president, he rose above ideology to build his country's self-esteem with a growing economy and relief from poverty. This is the first full biography of a democratic leader whose remarkable success will be an inspiration for decades to come. Spanning his childhood, his years in the labor movement, his four campaigns for the presidency, his two presidential terms and the election of his successor, Dilma Rousseff, this volume focuses on Lula as a personality and explores his impact on Brazilian society. Elected on an ill-defined platform of "change," Lula's inaugural address promised that hope had conquered fear and that it was time for Brazil to blaze a new path. However, he understood that what most Brazilians really wanted was relief from stressful and demanding changes. Drawing strength from his mother's courage, optimism, and religious faith, Lula forged a new leadership style contrasting sharply with that of populist Latin American leaders who aggravate social class and international conflicts. Lula offers a model of leadership for an age when democratic revolutions sweep the globe and presidents-for-life are thrown out of office in disgrace. Despite his overwhelming popularity, Lula refused to allow his supporters to advocate amending the Brazilian constitution to allow him a third term as president. His biography is essential reading for anyone concerned with building democratic order in a developing society.

This book, conceived in the 2010s, demonstrates that the thesis of renewable energy prevailed. Despite still having a long way to go, after the epic battle between the forces of maintaining fossil fuels in the energy market in Brazil and in the U.S. and the favorable winds of energy and renewable energy infrastructure projects, renewables advanced quickly and are here to stay, whether we like it or not. Renewable energy developments that have taken place in the past decade (from 2010 when this book was conceived to 2020) shaped the way we humans function in society. In this book, the author highlights the beginning of the history of the oil industry in Brazil and oil in the US and the bold and baby steps towards renewables. The rest is history validating itself in the daily life of the third decade of the 21st century until we reach the massive scale of the electric vehicle industry already represented by Tesla, Li Auto, NIO, Lucid Motors, Rivian, among others. Indeed, we see a great change and orientation towards sustainability. In this case, the direction became more important than the speed of implementation of the green, global, diversified future. The question in the current chapter of humanity is whether the concept of sustainability will be expanded to reach the political dimension through the current weakening of Western democracies in the modern world facing massive challenges such as global pandemics, the emergence and rapid expansion in all economic sectors and industries of artificial intelligence, robotics, not to mention the threats of nuclear wars and cyber-attacks between nations and global environmental devastation.
