Everyone is welcome.

Warm regards,

– Entrance is free but a donation of €3 (or more!) to fund the event is suggested and would be most welcome

Discussing World Politics group will raise the following questions:

– Do the protests in Brazil represent democratization from below or an attempt at dislodging the political legitimacy of the ruling elite?

– What is the position of Brazil among the Latin American ‘Left Tide’?

– Does da Silva’s Workers’ Party truthfully represent the interests of workers or has the pressure of political power meant an ideological transformation of the party?
