Description:
In this major new textbook, the authors explore the process of Brazil's entry into the capitalist world economy from Brazil's origins as a Portuguese power to the country's attainment of its current status as a regional power in Latin America and the eighth largest world economy. They demonstrate the effects of both the world capitalist system and local factors on Brazil's socio-spatial formation. They also assess how Brazil's challenges, as a semi-peripheral country and a regional power, may affect the restructuring of the world capitalist system.
