Ben Ross Schneider's volume, New Order and Progress takes a
thorough look at the political economy of Brazil. The distinctive
perspective of the 11 chapters is historical, comparative, and
theoretical. Collectively, the chapters offer sobering insight into
why Brazil has not been the rising economic star of the BRIC that
many predicted it would be, but also documents the gains that
Brazil has made toward greater equality and stability. The book is
grouped into four parts covering Brazil's development strategy,
governance, social change, and political representation. The
authors -18 leading experts from Brazil and the United States -
analyze core issues in Brazil's evolving political economy,
including falling inequality, the new middle class, equalizing
federalism, the politicization of the federal bureaucracy,
resurgent state capitalism, labor market discrimination, survival
of political dynasties, the expansion of suffrage, oil and the
resource curse, exchange rates and capital controls, protest
movements, and the frayed social contract.
