"Collection of essays written by Brazilian and American scholars considers many aspects of Brazilian society and culture. Divided into four sections: 'Brazilian Styles of Social Relations,' 'Race, Class, and Gender in a Changing Culture,' 'Ideologies and Cultures on an International Stage,' and 'Brazilian Society: Macrostructures in Comparative Perspective.' Essays share a comparative and cultural perspective, bringing out the hierarchical and personalistic structures of Brazilian society"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
