Brazil Unraveling: the Country of the Future in Crisis

A Conversation with Matias Spektor

Recorded in January 2018


Global Futures is a podcast about global politics and how rising powers like China and India are changing it. We discuss foreign policy, economics, war and peace, and how the world is changing with experts from across the world.

In this episode of the Global Futures podcast, Joel Sandhu from the Global Public Policy Institute (GPPi) meets Matias Spektor, an associate professor in the Center for International Relations at Fundação Getulio Vargas in Sao Paulo, to discuss Brazil's current political crisis and economic recession. The country’s image as a rising economic power is under threat, so how badly hit is Brazil, the country of the future?
