C/E/158. Rio de Janeiro: Poverty, Democratization and Liberalization the mistakes of Brazil and what can be learnt by the Chilean Experience
- WORDS:
- 2000
- DATE:

- PRICE:

This discussion will begin by considering the theoretical theory linking economic growth to the introduction of democracy to a country, as well as the urbanization of the country, i.e. the move from traditional agricultural living to the pull of the city. This is especially significant when companies take over the traditional lands of subsistence, which is the case in contemporary Brazil. Then it will turn to a case-study analysis of Rio de Janeiro whether there is a link between democracy and urbanization, which has created economic growth. Cardoso's neo-liberalist approach fails to deal with a rounded image of the influences of liberalization and democratization, it does mention human rights but forgets to further other aspects such as, sustainable development and environmental protection, which Rio de Janeiro has focused on with its cycle paths (Sikris 2005), however it has failed in adequately dealing with poverty in Rio de Janeiro (Wheeler, 2003). Therefore it is important to explore the responses of Kirton and von Furstenberg (2001) to neo-liberalism, they ask some very important questions about the growing effects of a growing economy can be properly monitored through democratization, community participation and wealth re-distribution which can be seen in the Chilean example.
