Story
O Brasil assistiu nos últimos anos ao rápido crescimento da JBS, que, nas mãos dos irmãos Wesley e Joesley Batista, saiu da condição de pequena empresa familiar para transformar-se em gigante mundial. Já no auge do sucesso, Joesley trocou o seu iate Blessed (“Abençoado”, em inglês) por um novo e maior, que batizou de Why Not (“Por que não?”). O sugestivo nome parecia indicar os rumos que os irmãos estavam dispostos a trilhar. Por que não subornar políticos para aprovar leis que favorecessem a empresa? Por que não crescer contando com atalhos e privilégios de uma rede estatal de benefícios?

Esta biografia de José Bonifácio tem a peculiaridade de ter sido escrita por um quase contemporâneo seu, Sébastien Auguste Sisson, francês radicado no Rio de Janeiro. Nela, Sisson destaca a infância influenciada pela mãe, que cobrava dedicação aos estudos, sua formação acadêmica em Portugal, seu fervor pela causa brasileira – que o levou a julgamento quando defendeu inconfidentes –, sua amizade com figuras ilustres como Kant e Humboldt, até sua morte, depois de ter cuidado dos filhos de D. Pedro I.

Story
Sarmiento renunció a la masonería antes de asumir, vivió de prestado en casas de parientes y sufrió un grave atentado por parte del mismo bando que propició el asesinato de Urquiza. Cargó con la epidemia de la fiebre amarilla y la mayor tragedia naval de su tiempo. Completó su mandato en medio de una rebelión militar. Lo trataron de borracho, corrupto, inútil y anticonstitucional. Pero el contexto hostil no le impidió expandir los ferrocarriles y el telégrafo, promover la ciencia y la tecnología, impulsar el uso de maquinaria agrícola.

Os brasileiros acham que conhecem bem os argentinos. Afinal, nós curtimos Buenos Aires, eles desfrutam de nossas praias e uns e outros praticam a língua comum, o portunhol. Desconfiamos de que ser argentino vai além de amar tango e churrasco, mas nem imaginamos que nossa rivalidade preferencial não é recíproca: eles detestam reconhecer, mas amam os brasileiros e preferem derrotar os ingleses à nossa seleção de futebol.

Poucos conhecem a participação brasileira no primeiro grande conflito do século passado. A Primeira Guerra Mundial chegou ao Brasil pelo mar, quando navios mercantes brasileiros começaram a ser afundados por submarinos alemães, que desenvolviam uma campanha de bloqueio naval contra a navegação Aliada. Diante dos ataques, o Brasil reconheceu estar em estado de guerra contra a aliança liderada pela Alemanha e uniu-se ao esforço internacional contra os germânicos.

Como historiador e cidadão, julguei que poderia ajudar o país promovendo um debate de alto nível sobre alguns dos problemas mais importantes que o Brasil precisa resolver nos próximos anos. Concebemos a obra com o objetivo explícito de qualificar o debate, de avançar na discussão de ideias, de reunir um grupo de brasileiros dispostos a sugerir políticas públicas em sua área de especialização e interesse. O leitor não vai encontrar aqui ensaios acadêmicos, embora todos os autores reunidos tenham competência para formulá-los, com muita qualidade.

Story
Transformations in Portugal and Brazil followed the discovery of gold in Brazil's hinterland and the hinterland's subsequent settlement. Although earlier conquests and evangelizations had incorporated new lands and peoples into the monarchy, royal officials now argued that the extraction of gold and the imperatives of rivalry and commerce demanded new approaches to governance. Using archival records of royal and local administrations, Kirsten Schultz shows how the eighteenth-century Portuguese crown came to define and defend Brazil as a "colony" that would reinvigorate Portuguese power.

A Guerra do Paraguai foi o maior conflito armado entre países da América do Sul. Na segunda metade do século XIX, Brasil, Argentina, Uruguai e Paraguai envolveram-se em um embate longo e sangrento. Uma das principais teses a respeito da origem do conflito alega que o imperialismo inglês foi o responsável pela guerra. Teríamos sido bonecos manipulados pela grande potência britânica.
