Democracy Without Equity : Failures of Reform in Brazil Paperback / softback
by Kurt Weyland
Part of the Pitt Latin American Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
In Democracy without Equity, Weyland investigates the crucial political issue for many Latin American countries: the possibility for redistributing wealth and power through the democratic process. He focuses on Brazil\u2019s redistributive initiatives in tax policy, social security, and health care. Weyland\u2019s work is based on some 260 interviews with interest group representatives, politicians, and bureaucrats, the publications of interest groups, speeches of policy makers, newspaper accounts, legislative bills, congressional committee reports, and more. He concludes that, in countries whose society and political parties are fragmented, the prospects for effective redistributive policies are poor.
