This book maps how Brazil and the network of Portuguese-speaking
countries-the "Lusosphere"-are using digital technologies in new
ways to expand opportunities at all levels of society. From a
diverse range of perspectives across the Portuguese-speaking world,
contributors to this volume explore such questions as the
capability of information technologies to encourage social
inclusion in the face of economic inequality, the kinds of cultural
values that may replace those of the scarcity-based industrial era,
and the potential emergence of a virtual world order based on soft
power, given the failures of hard power alternatives. This book
explores how digital linkages between Brazil and
physically-separated Portuguese-speaking communities are
influencing the arts, creative industries, sports, learning,
business, and cultural evolution for hundreds of millions of
Portuguese-speaking people on five continents. At a time of
escalating calls in Europe and North America to close borders and
build walls, Brazil and the Emergence of a Digital Lusosphere
charts alternatives that offer inspiration and practical paths
toward a more inclusive world.
