About the book

"Imagining Brazil provides a comprehensive and multifaceted picture of Brazil in the age of globalization. Privileging diversity in relation to the authors as well as the manner in which Brazil is perceived, Jesse Souza and Valter Sinder have assembled historians, political scientists, sociologists, literary critics, and scholars of culture in an attempt to understand a complex society in all its richness and diversity. Rising from one of the world's poorest societies in the 1930s to the world's eighth largest economy in the 1980s, Brazil can be seen as an example of how globalization impacts on peripheral societies and on the serious social problems that generally plague these societies. Imagining Brazil explores the connections between society, politics, culture, and literature, creating a comprehensive volume that is of interest to scholars of Latin American studies and globalization."--Jacket.
