Brasilia Travel Guide - Brazilian Astonishing Experience
Brasília, the capital of Brazil and the seat of government of the Distrito Federal, is a planned city. Inaugurated in 1960 in the Central Highlands of Brazil, it is a masterpiece of modernist architecture listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO and attracts architecture aficionados worldwide. Brasilia is also an important transportation hub for travel within Brazil.
The basic structure of Brasilia was completed in just four years, from 1956 to 1960, under the leadership of President Juscelino Kubitschek, with the slogan fifty years of progress in five, and the city is in a sense a memorial to him. The cathedral has six columns representing two hands reaching up to almighty heaven.
Temperatures seldom hit extremes. 17°C to 28°C (63 to 82°F) are the average lows and highs, but it can get as low as 1°C (34°F) in winter and get as hot as 34°C (92°F) in September/October. In dry season (August–September) the city's landscape, normally very green, becomes desert-like and everyone must drink lots of water to prevent the unpleasant effects of dehydration.
Official tourist info can be obtained from State Secretariat of Tourism of the Distrito Federal (in Portuguese). There are also stands in the airport, the new rodoviaria and the Praça dos Três Poderes. The Three Powers Square (Praça dos Três Poderes) at the eastern end of the Monumental Axis. Includes the seats of the country's 3 highest authorities: the Congress, the Presidential Palace (called Palácio do Planalto) and the Supreme Court. The axis itself is aligned such that on April 21 (Tiradentes Day, marking the death of the Brazilian independence martyr), the sun rises precisely between the two towers of Congress. The bronze statue of two abstract figures is named Os Candangos and represents the pioneering spirit of the workers who built the city. There's also a blind justice statue by the Supreme Court, a small museum about Juscelino Kubitschek, the Pantheon, the Eternal Flame monument, and a model, built to scale, of Brasilia itself, in an underground space.
Brasilia does not have a typical, regional cuisine. Nevertheless, restaurants serve food from many Brazilian states, as well as international fare. Most of the city's accommodation is located at the Hotel Sectors (SHS and SHN), two central areas located on both sides of Eixo Monumental. During weekdays, hotels are usually busy due to the capital's political activity and it is advisable to book in advance. Typical prices are R$200 for a double room and R$95 for a single. Most ot the hotels have an off-price for the weekends.
With long distances and harrowing six-lane highways connected by spaghetti junctions, Brasília presents challenges for walkers; consider renting a car or ride shares. You'll find a lively city hidden behind the futuristic facade. It's not only a pilgrimage for architecture buffs but also foodies, night owls and those seeking a unique travel experience.

STORYLINE
Brazil''s capital celebrates its 50th anniversary on Wednesday; a city of two (m) million with swooping buildings designed by famed architect Oscar Niemeyer.
Brasilia, built from scratch 600 miles (965 kilometres) inland, was envisioned as the dream city, a transformational project to thrust Latin America''s largest nation ahead with a modern capital in the wilds of Brazil''s vast, interior savanna.
A half century after it was inaugurated on April 21, 1960, it has fulfilled much of that promise.
The roads are smooth and pedestrians can cross streets without fear of being mowed down. Downtown sparkles, in contrast to the crumbling centres of Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo.
Brasilia was an adventure, said Niemeyer. It was made in such a rush, we barely had time to think.
Moving the capital from coastal Rio de Janeiro to Brazil''s interior had been floated as early as 1823 by independence leader Jose Bonifacio de Andrade e Silva.
He and his successors wanted to develop the vast swaths of jungle and plain that held natural riches and seemingly endless farm land. But there was no population centre to anchor such development.
During the 1956-1961 term of President Juscelino Kubitschek, whose motto was 50 Years of Progress in Five, the city was finally built, in 41 months, with labourers toiling 24 hours a day until the inauguration.
Brasilia''s architecture has brought international attention.
Named in 1987 as a UNESCO world heritage site, the city''s airplane-shaped design was the idea of urban planner Lucio Costa and its modernistic government buildings the work of architect Niemeyer.
But despite its beauty, Brasilia has the same problems as the rest of Brazil, with the city ringed by huge rundown areas.
It was designed with enough homes for an estimated 600-thousand people.

B-side
- Niemeyer wrote a book ‘Curves of Time’ in which he explains his work.
- The church in Pampulha got lots of criticism because of the unorthodox shape, only after some years it was accepted by the critics.
- Joaquim Cardoso (1897-1978) was Niemeyer’s engineer since the Pampulha project. He was a major key in making Niemeyer’s work become reality.
- The modernistic thought of ‘form follows function’ was not a design tool for Niemeyer. ‘’Beauty is also a function’’
- When Jean-Paul Sartre found out about Brasília, he wrote that it is a dreamlike and ideal architectural city.
- When Walter Gropius visited Niemeyer’s home after completion, he mentioned: ‘’it is a beautiful house Oscar, but you wouldn’t be able to remake something like this´´. On which Niemeyer replied: ‘’Of course not, the house is designed for this location’’.
This 'B-side' is here to deliver more information about Oscar.
The purpose of the video is to inform you quick with info, so why not put more information beneath the video? :)

Challenges to Brazilian Democracy Conference – Political Exile under the Bolsonaro Government
Welcome: James N. Green, Director, Brown Brazil Initiative
Brief Presentation of U.S. Observatory for Democracy in Brazil Website
Keynote Panel: What Does It Mean to Be a Political Exile under the Bolsonaro Government?
Débora Diniz, professor of anthropology and law
Jean Wyllys, journalist, former congressman
Márcia Tiburi, professor of philosophy
The recent election of Jair Bolsonaro to the Brazilian presidency has raised new questions about the state of democracy in Brazil. Are his campaign promises to criminalize social movements, stop the demarcation of indigenous lands, and eliminate opposition political parties merely electoral rhetoric? What does increased deforestation of the Amazon and other sensitive ecological zones mean for the environment? What is the fate of academic and cultural freedom under a new government whose supporters speak, among other questions, against “gender ideology” and “political correctness,” which can be read as veiled critiques of the women’s and the LGBTQI+ movements and the ideas of progressive social sectors? Will new gun policies result in more deaths in rural and urban areas, and particularly among people of African and indigenous descent? To what extent are human rights, especially among low-income citizens, under threat? This international conference, organized jointly with colleagues from Harvard University, will bring together scholars and social and cultural activists to analyze the current situation in Brazil and assess these and other threats to democracy posed by President Bolsonaro’s far-right agenda. At the Conference, we will also launch the US Observatory for Democracy in Brazil, an English-language website documenting recent events in the country, and have a strategic discussion about how U.S.-based academics and activists can defend democracy in Brazil.
Country at a Crossroads: A Roundtable on Brazilian Politics
Three Brazilian scholars will comment on the current political situation in Brazil and offer their perspectives for the country's future. Professor Jim Green will moderate.
Commentators:
Vera Paiva is Craig M. Cogut Visiting Professor at CLACS, and is a Professor in Social Psychology at the University of São Paulo where she coordinates the Interdisciplinary Group for Aids Prevention.

Dr. Cláudio Beato is a Full professor in the Departments of Sociology and Anthropology. He is currently is the coordinator of CRISP (Center for Studies in Criminality and Public Security) at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG). He has developed a number of projects regarding homicide control in areas of risk; integrated management of police processes; the use of intervention technologies, information technologies and community policing.
Abner Sótenos received his Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in history from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ). In 2013, he was awarded the Ana Lugão Rios’s Prize for the Best Master’s Thesis Honorable Mention by the Graduate Program in Social History at UFRJ. He also worked with the State Commission for Truth of Rio de Janeiro (CEV-RJ) between 2014 and 2015. His research focuses on grassroots movements throughout modern Brazilian history, the role of apparatuses of repression during the Brazilian dictatorship (1964-1985), and changes in political regimes.

SUMMARY
=======
The National Archives of Brazil (in Portuguese: Arquivo Nacional) were created in 1838 as the Imperial Public Archives. The Archives were renamed in 1911, and are located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The National Archives of Brazil is the Brazilian institution responsible for the management, preservation and dissemination of federal government documents. Since 2011 it is subordinated to the Ministry of Justice.
The AN has the following competence, accordind to the Decree No. 9,360 of May 7, 2018, which grants it as the main body of Archival Documents Management System (in Portuguese: Sistema de Gestão de Documentos de Arquivo – SIGA) of the federal government: to guide the main organizations and entities of the federal Executive Power in the implementation of document management programs; oversee the application of procedures and technical operations related to the production, registration, classification, control of the processing, use and evaluation of documents, in order to the modernization of government archival services; promote the collection of permanent guard documents for technical treatment, preservation and dissemination, to guarantee full access to information, in support of governmental decisions of a political-administrative nature and to the citizen in the defense of their rights, aiming to encourage the production of scientific and cultural knowledge; and supervise and apply the national policy archives, established by the National Council of Archives (Conselho Nacional de Arquivo – CONARQ).The National Archives of Brazil thus fulfills a double and essential function for the Brazilian State and society - both in the management of archival documents that are produced in all federal institutions and also in safeguarding and giving access to fundamental fonds for history.

Assista todos os vídeos desta série:
Parte 3 do audiovisual sobre a marcha da Contra-Revolução de 2015 a 2017 apresentado em uma sessão no Hotel Pestana por ocasião das comemorações do IPCO e das TFP's do exterior e associações afins pelo Centenário das Aparições da Santíssima Virgem em Fátima.
O evento contou com a presença de delegações de vários estados brasileiros e de diversos países que encheram o auditório.
A apresentação foi mais uma amostra expressiva da expansão e atualidade dos ideais que o Prof. Plinio sustentou e impulsionou durante toda a sua vida e que ainda hoje continuam florescendo através de entidades espalhadas em 30 países.
Logo após a apresentação foi servido um coquetel no qual os participantes tiveram ocasião de manter uma conversa animada com seus irmãos de ideal e buscar o aprimoramento da luta ideológica Contra-Revolucionária.
O audiovisual proporcionou aos convidados conhecer mais de perto o estilo de luta dos filhos do Prof. Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira: Luta pacífica e ordeira, porém enérgica, aguerrida e entusiástica a serviço da Civilização Cristã, estilo esse definido brilhantemente pelo Prof. Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira: “No idealismo, ardor; no trato, cortesia; na ação, devotamento sem limites ao ideal; na presença do adversário, circunspeção; na luta, altaneria e coragem. E pela coragem, vitória!”

SUMMARY
=======
Censorship in Brazil, both cultural and political, occurred throughout the whole period following the colonization of the country. Even though most state censorship ended just before the period of redemocratization that started in 1984, Brazil still experiences a small amount of non-official censorship today. The current legislation restricts freedom of expression concerning racism (Paim Law) and the Constitution prohibits the anonymity of journalists.

SUMMARY
=======
Argentina (Spanish: [aɾxenˈtina]), officially named the Argentine Republic (Spanish: República Argentina), is a country located mostly in the southern half of South America. Sharing the bulk of the Southern Cone with Chile to the west, the country is also bordered by Bolivia and Paraguay to the north, Brazil to the northeast, Uruguay and the South Atlantic Ocean to the east, and the Drake Passage to the south. With a mainland area of 2,780,400 km2 (1,073,500 sq mi), Argentina is the eighth-largest country in the world, the fourth largest in the Americas, and the largest Spanish-speaking nation. The sovereign state is subdivided into twenty-three provinces (Spanish: provincias, singular provincia) and one autonomous city (ciudad autónoma), Buenos Aires, which is the federal capital of the nation (Spanish: Capital Federal) as decided by Congress. The provinces and the capital have their own constitutions, but exist under a federal system. Argentina claims sovereignty over part of Antarctica, the Falkland Islands (Spanish: Islas Malvinas), and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.
The earliest recorded human presence in modern-day Argentina dates back to the Paleolithic period. The country has its roots in Spanish colonization of the region during the 16th century. Argentina rose as the successor state of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata, a Spanish overseas viceroyalty founded in 1776. The declaration and fight for independence (1810–1818) was followed by an extended civil war that lasted until 1861, culminating in the country's reorganization as a federation of provinces with Buenos Aires as its capital city. The country thereafter enjoyed relative peace and stability, with several waves of European immigration radically reshaping its cultural and demographic outlook. The almost-unparalleled increase in prosperity led to Argentina becoming the seventh wealthiest nation in the world by the early 20th century.Following the Great Depression in the 1930s, Argentina descended into political instability and economic decline that pushed it back into underdevelopment, though it remained among the fifteen richest countries for several decades. Following the death of President Juan Perón in 1974, his wife Isabel Martínez de Perón ascended to the presidency. She was overthrown in 1976 by a U.S.-backed coup which installed a right-wing military dictatorship. The military government persecuted and murdered numerous political critics, activists, and leftists in the Dirty War, a period of state terrorism that lasted until the election of Raúl Alfonsín as President in 1983. Several of the junta's leaders were later convicted of their crimes and sentenced to imprisonment.

Mellon Sawyer Seminar on Displacement | Dams and Displacement - Session 2
Skip ahead to main speaker at 2:49
A common thread of the Mellon Sawyer seminar is displacement as formative of power relations of inclusion and exclusion that have shaped global histories and had long term effects on multiple environments and forms of subjectivity.
The seminar's second event will focus on the impact of the construction of dams. Large dams represent the most visible ugly face of forced displacement due to development projects by affecting some of the weakest sections of society. By bringing together academics and planners at the same table, this seminar looks at how resettlement of affected groups is planned and what are its long-term socioeconomic implications.

SUMMARY
=======
Argentina (Spanish: [aɾxenˈtina]), officially named the Argentine Republic (Spanish: República Argentina), is a country located mostly in the southern half of South America. Sharing the bulk of the Southern Cone with Chile to the west, the country is also bordered by Bolivia and Paraguay to the north, Brazil to the northeast, Uruguay and the South Atlantic Ocean to the east, and the Drake Passage to the south. With a mainland area of 2,780,400 km2 (1,073,500 sq mi), Argentina is the eighth-largest country in the world, the fourth largest in the Americas, and the largest Spanish-speaking nation. The sovereign state is subdivided into twenty-three provinces (Spanish: provincias, singular provincia) and one autonomous city (ciudad autónoma), Buenos Aires, which is the federal capital of the nation (Spanish: Capital Federal) as decided by Congress. The provinces and the capital have their own constitutions, but exist under a federal system.

SUMMARY
=======
Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías (; Spanish: [ˈuɣo rafaˈel ˈt͡ʃaβes ˈfɾi.as]; 28 July 1954 – 5 March 2013) was a Venezuelan politician who was President of Venezuela from 1999 to 2013. Chávez was also leader of the Fifth Republic Movement political party from its foundation in 1997 until 2007, when it merged with several other parties to form the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), which he led until 2012.
Born into a working-class family in Sabaneta, Barinas, Chávez became a career military officer, and after becoming dissatisfied with the Venezuelan political system based on the Puntofijo Pact, he founded the clandestine Revolutionary Bolivarian Movement-200 (MBR-200) in the early 1980s. Chávez led the MBR-200 in an unsuccessful coup d'état against the Democratic Action government of President Carlos Andrés Pérez in 1992, for which he was imprisoned. Released from prison after two years, he founded a political party known as the Fifth Republic Movement and was elected President of Venezuela in 1998. He was re-elected in 2000 and again in 2006 with over 60% of the votes. After winning his fourth term as president in the October 2012 presidential election, he was to be sworn in on 10 January 2013, but Venezuela's National Assembly postponed the inauguration to allow him time to recover from medical treatment in Cuba. Suffering a return of the cancer originally diagnosed in June 2011, Chávez died in Caracas on 5 March 2013 at the age of 58.Following the adoption of a new constitution in 1999, Chávez focused on enacting social reforms as part of the Bolivarian Revolution. Using record-high oil revenues of the 2000s, his government nationalized key industries, created participatory democratic Communal Councils and implemented social programs known as the Bolivarian missions to expand access to food, housing, healthcare and education. Venezuela received high oil profits in the mid-2000s, resulting in temporary improvements in areas such as poverty, literacy, income equality and quality of life occurring primarily between 2003 and 2007, though these gains started to reverse after 2012 and it has been argued that government policies did not address structural inequalities. Overall, Chávez's populist policies eventually led to a severe socioeconomic crisis in Venezuela.On 2 June 2010, Chávez declared an economic war due to shortages in Venezuela, beginning the crisis in Bolivarian Venezuela. By the end of Chávez's presidency in the early 2010s, economic actions performed by his government during the preceding decade such as deficit spending and price controls proved to be unsustainable, with Venezuela's economy faltering while poverty, inflation and shortages in Venezuela increased. Chávez's presidency also saw significant increases in the country's murder rate and continued corruption within the police force and government. His use of enabling acts and his government's use of Bolivarian propaganda were also controversial.Internationally, Chávez aligned himself with the Marxist–Leninist governments of Fidel and then Raúl Castro in Cuba, as well as the socialist governments of Evo Morales (Bolivia), Rafael Correa (Ecuador) and Daniel Ortega (Nicaragua). His presidency was seen as a part of the socialist pink tide sweeping Latin America. Chávez described his policies as anti-imperialist, being a prominent adversary of the United States's foreign policy as well as a vocal critic of U.S.-supported neoliberalism and laissez-faire capitalism. He described himself as a Marxist. He supported Latin American and Caribbean cooperation and was instrumental in setting up the pan-regional Union of South American Nations, the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States, the Bolivarian Alliance for the Americas, the Bank of the South and the regional television network TeleSUR. Chavez's ideas, programs, and style form the basis of Chavismo, a politic ...
Sucre
Sucre (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈsukɾe]), also known historically as Charcas [ˈtʃarkas], La Plata [la ˈplata] and Chuquisaca [tʃikiˈsaka] (population 247,300 in 2006) is the constitutional capital of Bolivia, the capital of the department of Chuquisaca, and the 6th most populated city in Bolivia. Located in the south-central part of the country, Sucre lies at an elevation of 2810 m. This relatively high altitude gives the city a cool temperate climate year-round.
