About This Item
xii+252 pagers with maps, illustrations, glossary and index. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's brown cloth with brown lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First edition. To map the shifting interplay of state with federal politics in Brazil over the turbulent period from 1930 to 1964 is a task of no mean proportion or value. Carlos Cortés attempts that and more. By arguing that Rio Grande do Sul deliberately and decisively circumscribed the actions of national political figures, most dramatically those of Getúlio Vargas between 1930 and 1937, but also those of João Goulart in the 1960s, Cortés gives bold interpretive shape to that mapping. Condition: Head page ends soiled. Jacket price clipped, darkening to spine and edges, spine ends and corners chipped else very good in like jacket.
