While the country has seen renewed economic growth and progress in areas of health care and education, the gap between rich and poor remains vast. Rampant crime, racial inequality, and a pandemic lack of personal security taint the vision of progress. In this sequel to Democratic Brazil, editors Kingstone and Power have assembled a distinguished group of scholars to assess the impact of competitive politics on Brazilian government, institutions, economics, and society.
