Brazil's Dance With The Devil (updated Olympics Edition) : The World Cup, the Olympics, and the Struggle for Democracy Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The people of Brazil celebrated when they learned that in the space of two years their country would host the world's two largest sporting events: the World Cup in 2014 and the Olympics in 2016.

Now they are protesting in numbers the country hasn't seen in decades.

Dave Zirin relies on fieldwork from the most dangerous corners of Rio to the halls of power in Washington, DC, exposing how sports and politics have collided in spectacular fashion.

This edition has been newly updated to assess the situation in Brazil as it has changed since the 2014 World Cup.
