Poverty in Developing Countries: Brazil - created from Mind Map

Seite 1

POLITICAL ISSUE: poverty CONCEPTS: development, inequality, globalisation, development (mention structural violence), justice, sovereignty

DEBATES: has poverty increased? illiteracy. has globalization affected Brazil? Maybe add another developing country for comparison (India?) - a strong economy but internal problems. The development of the economy is only positively impacting the richer citizens, poorer parts of Brazil have been in the same situation for years

PERSPECTIVES:

GLOBAL SIGNIFICANCE: Brazil is South America's most influential country, a rising economic power and one of the world's biggest democracies. Despite the rise of the economy, a major part of the country doesn't benefit from it.
