LACERDA, André. Brazilian democracy in Lula’s years. []. , 29, pp.45-58. ISSN 1645-9199.

Brazil lives a particular moment of political and economic stability, seldom seen in its history, resulting from a process initiated with the democratization of the country. This article analyses how Lula and the PT after gaining power implemented their agenda of economic and social transformation. It argues that the reflexes of these practices allowed foreign policy to, in several instances, compensate for the fragilities of the PT’s strategy, serving as its ideological counterweight.
