1 HIGH MANAGEMENT TRAINING COURSE FOR DIPLOMATS

2 WHY CHOOSE FGV? Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV) was founded in 1944 to provide world-class training in business, law, public policy, and economics in Brazil. FGV is one of the world s Top 15 think-tanks according to the University of Pennsylvania s Go To Think Tank Index, as well as leading research center and university. FGV is present in more than 100 cities in Brazil, besides Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Brasília, through a network of affiliated institutions, partners of the Institute for Educational Development (IDE). FGV's Center for International Relations offers a range of degrees, professional courses, and produces policy-relevant research. 2

3 COURSE DESCRIPTION: CONTEMPORARY BRAZIL: POLITICS, ECONOMICS AND SOCIETY This course is Brazil 101, covering the fundamentals you need to know to make sense of its politics, economics and society. Lecturers will introduce the contemporary debates as they have evolved in expert literatures from Brazil itself and from scholarly works worldwide. Class discussions will draw on the fascinating evolution of Brazilian public life in the course of the last couple of years, while also looking forward in trying to answer the nagging question: What Next?. Participants sitting this course will be educated and informed professionals who are relatively new to Brazil and are keen to quickly grasp the fundamentals of what makes this country tick. WHOM IS IT FOR? The Premium Course is recommended for foreign diplomats who work in consulates and embassies in Brazil. It is also open for foreign correspondents. HOW DOES IT WORK? All lectures for this course will be given in English. We will meet two Saturdays (8.30am to 4pm). This course includes lunch on both days. On day 1, participants will have lectures on Politics and Economics. On day 2, we will cover Society and Foreign Relations. Participants will receive an electronic package of readings and core questions in advance to help them prepare for the lectures and ensuing debates. 3

4 LECTURES Politics: This session covers the foundations of the Brazilian political system, with a focus on the relationship between the Executive, the Judiciary and the Legislative, and the interaction between the federal administration and state governors. We will also look in detail at the Brazilian voter and its evolution over the last thirty years of democratic rule. The course will assess the current state of Brazilian politics, and go through the core perspectives moving forward towards the presidential elections of Economics: This session assesses the current state of the Brazilian economy and its key drivers, with an analysis of the most likely scenarios moving forward. It looks at monetary policy, fiscal politics, and the nature and structure of public debt. It also focuses on the role of state-owned enterprises, regulatory agencies, and the Central Bank. Finally, the session deals with the evolution of consumption patterns in the last several years. Society: This session analyzes Brazilian society and the key themes that shape the contemporary public debate. What is the role of Brazil s media? How do non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and social movements influence the political scene? How should we think of the protests that have erupted in Brazil since 2013? The course will also assess core themes such as religion, socioeconomic inequality, racism, the role of Brazil s indigenous population and environmental issues. Foreign Relations: This session analyzes Brazil s behavior abroad, first with regard to neighbors in the Americas and global governance, then in relation to the non-western world. What are the key drivers of Brazil s foreign policy, what are its domestic politics, how have they evolved and what can we expect in the coming years? The course will analyze how Brazil s role in the region has changed and how the end of the commodity boom has affected South America as a whole, and we then discuss Brazil s trade policy, assessing the role of Mercosur and the politics of the ongoing trade negotiations with the European Union. The course then turns to relations with the United States, followed by an analysis of Brazil s role in the BRICS grouping, as well as its growing dependence on China. 4
