{"product_id":"traditional-politics-and-regime-change-frances-hagopian-9780521032889","title":"Traditional Politics and Regime Change in Brazil","description":"This book is about politics in Brazil during the military regime of 1964-85 and the transition to democracy. Unlike most books about contemporary Brazilian politics that focus on promising signs of change, this book seeks to explain remarkable political continuity in the Brazilian political system. It attributes the persistence of traditional politics and the dominance of regionally-based, traditional political elites in particular to the manner in which the economic and political strategies of the military, together with the transition to democracy, reinforced the clientelistic, personalistic, and regional basis of state-society relations. The book focuses on the political competition and representation in the state of Minas Gerais.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frances Hagopian\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521032881\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521032889\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/12\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.77d","brand":"Frances Hagopian","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46602692657407,"sku":"9780521032889","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_793a3077-cc5e-4f20-b517-bbd6228b0d16.jpg?v=1739694999","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/traditional-politics-and-regime-change-frances-hagopian-9780521032889","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
