Why is Brazil a backward country? - by Luiz Philippe de Orlean and Bragança

Why is Brazil a backward country? It reveals the reasons that led us to the current situation of political, institutional and economic decadence. Debut book by academic, political activist and descendant of the royal family Luiz Philippe de Orleans and Bragança, the work invites the reader to understand the Brazilian reality by reviewing universal principles that have been suffocated by political narratives and state bureaucracy. The panorama that emerges from its pages may be discouraging for many people, but not for the author: does he create a purposeful work? without limiting himself to denunciation and criticism?, which reveals what are the legitimate flags in the construction and defense of the rule of law. Master in political sciences from Stanford University, in the USA, Luiz Philippe uses his solid intellectual training and professional experience in large investment banks to analyze contemporary Brazil with depth and lucidity in a text accessible to any reader, even those without prior knowledge of political and economic theories. Thus, it will be possible to understand how, over the centuries, an intervening state was built in Brazil, a process that reached its peak in the promulgation of the 1988 constitution.
