Brazil, the largest of the Latin American nations, is fast becoming a potent international economic player as well as a regional power. This English translation of an acclaimed Brazilian anthology provides critical overviews of Brazilian life, history, and culture and insight into Brazil's development over the past century. The distinguished essayists, most of whom are Brazilian, provide expert perspectives on the social, economic, and cultural challenges that face Brazil as it seeks future directions in the age of globalization.All of the contributors connect past, present, and future Brazil. Their analyses converge on the observation that although Brazil has undergone radical changes during the past one hundred years, trenchant legacies of social and economic inequality remain to be addressed in the new century. A foreword by Jerry Davila highlights the volume's contributions for a new, English-reading audience.The contributors are:Cristovam Buarque Aspasia CamargoGilberto Dupas Celso FurtadoAfranio GarciaCelso Lafer, Jose Seixas LourencoRenato Ortiz Moacir Palmeira Luiz Carlos Bresser PereiraPaulo Sergio PinheiroIgnacy SachsPaulo SingerHerve Thery Jorge Wilheim
