This collection of essays written by a distinguished group of Brazilian and American scholars--Albert Fishlow, Fernando Henrique Cardoso, and Thomas Skidmore among them--analyzes the tortuous, decade-long process, known as abertura , by which dictatorship gave way to civilian rule. As the first volume on Brazil to address the crucial theoretical and practical questions of both democratic transition and consolidation, Democratizing Brazil focuses specifically on the severe problems that the country now faces as a fledgling democracy. The contributors provide a comprehensive examination of the 1974-88 period in Brazilian history, exploring not only the larger political struggles between government and opposition but also the role played by economic policy, the debt crisis, and community-based movements led by the Church, neighborhood associations, women, and trade unions.
