"This collection responds to an immediate need for scholarly work in English assessing the first administration of President Luiz Inácio ‘Lula’ da Silva, a moderate Latin American leftist, democratically elected and re-elected to power. Complementing Lula of Brazil: The Story So Far, this book offers a strong contribution to the field."--Edward A. "Ted" Riedinger, Professor and Head, Ohio State University Latin American Library Collection (former secretary to President Juscelino Kubistchek)
This collection assesses the performance of Brazil’s Lula da Silva, the only working-class president in Latin American history, in his first term. The contributing scholars deal with Lula’s style of governance; the type of economic and social policies he adopted, in both their positive and negative aspects; the impact on regional inequalities; the administration’s treatment of agriculture and the environment; the nature of Lula’s foreign policy; and the Lula government’s place in the country’s long-term development. This volume is composed of renowned economists and regional scientists, as well as political scientists and historians.
