Special Focus: Brazilian Defence Industry |
Defence is a sensitive issue for every country and therefore each country has its own specific context that is heavily interrelated with the other aspects of the socio-economical and political life of it. That is the reason why one should study the broader political status quo of Brazil, if he would like to extract some positive conclusions about the future of the Brazilian armed forces and aerospace and defence industry.

Self-Enforcing Trade: Developing Countries and WTO Dispute Settlement, by Chad P. Bown
The World Trade Organization is undoubtedly the backbone of today's international commercial relations. WTO requires from its member-countries to self-enforce exporters' access to foreign markets. One of the most important functionalities of the organization is the dispute settlement system which is actually the crown jewel of the international trading system, but its benefits still fall disproportionately to wealthy nations. Could the system be doing more on behalf of developing countries? In "Self-Enforcing Trade", Chad P. Bown explains why the answer is an emphatic yes.

Energy in Brazil: Past, Present and Future, by Antonio Dias Leite
Today, more than ever before, the future of energy is interconnected with the impact that it has to the climate changes. Rapidly developing countries such as China and India are the real main players in the climate debate, with the potential for massive increases in their carbon emissions in coming years. Brazil is often included in their number, yet this country is in fact notable for its exceptionally high reliance on energy from renewable sources -- approaching 50%. However, the fact that much of this energy comes from hydropower and biofuels, and recent discoveries of massive oil reserves off of the Brazilian coast, are a recipe for controversy. This book is a major contribution to the discussion around climate change mitigation and therefore must be regarded as a must read for decision- and policymakers in the energy business.
