Summary

This edited collection interprets and assesses the transformation of Brazil under the Workers' Party. It addresses the extent of the changes the Workers' Party has brought about and examines how successful these have been, as well as how continuity and social
change in Brazil have affected key domains of economy, society and politics. Looking at the factors which drive transformation in a dynamic Brazilian society, this study offers a valuable insight into the paradoxes and debates which emerge when looking at Brazil
as a changing country during the past 20 years.
