This volume situates the field of Brazilian studies firmly in the twenty-first century as the nation confronts growing social discontent and global intrigue in light of the 2014 World Cup soccer tournament. The contributors focus primarily on questions regarding social inequality, sustained social movements, and exportable stereotypes and myths.
