What we want Brazil? Politics and Economics

The candidate Lula took some election & ccedil; & otilde; es for alcan & ccedil; air presid & ecirc; INSTANCE of Rep & uacute; Republic. Diff & iacute; cil whether this long vit & oacute; ria was due to the maturity of the application or the opposing party wear. Anyway, the legitimacy reaches & ccedil; ada the ballot box was added to the discourse of change & ccedil; a and created a climate of euphoria that is & aacute; being transformed into pure decep MAKE-HANDS, the. Although we retire the ingenuity of those who believe that in a few months the situation & ccedil; & atilde, the could radically improve, the PT government still leaves much to be desired.

In an article written shortly held (The government changed, will the company also? – Edi & ccedil; & atilde; 19 / January 2003) commented on the revolution & ccedil; & atilde, which meant the possession of a member n & atilde; o-owned & aggravate; s traditional Brazilian elites. In fun & ccedil; & atilde, the crisis of the first pol & iacute; optical, pass over to expose (The problem of Brazil n & atilde; the & eacute; the change of government, but the lack of elite – Edi & ccedil; & atilde; 20 / February 2003) the solid & atilde; the ruler in Middle & worse; aus & ecirc; INSTANCE of a project-pa & iacute; s, especially for those who really det & ecirc; m the ability to start the engine of change & ccedil; the; Made this mapping, to better understand what is & aacute; happening we must turn to the state.

In Brazil as well as in nearly all states structure pol & iacute; Fret social d & eacute; bil, the state is confused with the ruler and his group; order n & atilde; it was only controlling the state apparatus by & eacute; m transform its institutional nature. Get in & uacute; lio Vargas had the height of this process, when bureaucracy and president became the ju & iacute; zes & uacute; last of Brazilian society.

Since the government of Collor – gaining a lot of sophisticated & ccedil; & atilde, the government Cardoso – the state loses this profile pol & iacute; tico-social to win an econ & FLYING; mico-pol & iacute; tico. Até então, the reality was controlled by the state s & oacute; I changed something when this same reality proved to be stronger, that is, in times of crisis. Currently the State & eacute; that should suit & aggravate; reality. The speech econ & FLYING; monkey – as well as its pr & aacute; tica – n occupy HANDS; s & oacute; the claims & ccedil; & atilde; the Executive Branch, as well as important part of the legislative.

The state is so tied by limited & ccedil; & otilde, market es that to run the & quot; Zero Hunger" You need to cry out for help individual, which a beggar asking exchanged for food. To a large extent this is because the strengthening econ speech & FLYING; mico eventually transform the State into a company. And like any other, N & HAND D á profit, also & eacute; m n & HAND can give the preju & ​​iacute; zo.

Albeit in a diffuse form, it was expected that the PT government was able to build (j á that inda n & atilde; there is the) an alternative way to organize MAKE-HANDS, the. When to turn & ccedil; & atilde; the halfway end up losing the existing potential and we & aggravate; drift, hoping that the movement of the Sea & eacute; s decide the best destination.

Structural cracks PT-government (Palocci, Finance Minister – Dirceu, Civil House Chief) sum up & getting worse; have & atilde, the ideol & oacute; Gene PT-party (Deputy Jo & atilde; o Paulo Cunha, President of C & acirc; mara – Senator Alo has attributed Zio Mercadante) and removes the focus of discussion & atilde, the on state, concentrating it in the way the state should be conducted.

Certainly much of this tension & atilde; pol & iacute; tica adv & eacute; m the inexperi & ecirc; INSTANCE PT in managing & ccedil; & atilde, the federal which insists an ideal model fusion & atilde, the between state and party. However, when you can forecast a pol & iacute crisis; tica more s & eacute; laughing in the Lula government – under penalty of falling into a vicious stasis – faced with not good & iacute; CIA in that from the & iacute; cesium in year j á we raised US $ 4,85 billion.

Executives and international investors say they are increasingly confident in Brazil, We are willing to increase their investments here. Should surprise us such states & ccedil; & otilde; s just as the fundamentals of the crisis pol & iacute; tica become ever stronger. However, when the State & eacute; understood as a company, the dimensions & otilde; s econ & FLYING; mica and pol & iacute; tica can become independent, so this seek & aacute; and adapt to serve dea best poss & iacute; level & aggravate; chela.

The discussion & atilde; n & atilde; the & eacute; f á cyl, but Brazil s & oacute; determine & aacute; the path to be followed from the moment in which government and civil society are willing to remake the social pact, This includes knowing what we want to be and what costs we are willing to pay. Otherwise, we will remain focused on discussion & atilde; the ship as a & eacute; driven, forgetting which way we look at it is & aacute; following.

Moral of the hist & oacute; ria: is discussing n & atilde; if the advance & ccedil; very, in sil & ecirc; n & ncio atilde; if the advance & ccedil; nothing.
