Brasilen - framtidsland, igen

Globalisering

Brazil is a nation that we find particularly fascinating here, in part because it exists on that razor's edge between building the future and falling apart. -- WorldChanging

Återigen pratades det mycket om Brasilen, i synnerhet sedan Lula da Silva valdes till landets första vänsterpresident år 2003. Kultur, teknologi, självkänsla och ekonomi verkar alla få vara med på samma villkor i Brasiliens nya visionen. Man får verkligen känslan av att det är något genuint nytt som händer här och nu i Brasilien, något vi kan och borde lära oss av.

We've written a ton about Brazil, and for good reason: while still dragging behind it dire legacies of poverty, violence and corruption, Lula's Brazil is plotting out what looks like the first genuinely 21st Century course for the developing world. -- WorldChanging

De intressantaste artiklarna har jag hittas hos WorldChanging: Another World Is Here.

Lula: "Brazil Is More Than Carnaval and Street Kids." It's also a growing economy, running a massive and successful microcredit program, investing in biodiesel as a strategic priority, making a big move into wind energy and opening its carbon emissions trading program. -- WorldChanging
