Brazil’s Economic Revolution

In 2012, Brazil, beset by fallout from the global economic crisis, undertook bold measures to reinvigorate growth, including interest-rate reductions, tax reform, and steps aimed at stimulating private investment. More important, the government’s policies will have a permanent – indeed, revolutionary – impact on Brazil’s economy.
