“It’s lobbying, stupid!”: How foreign interest groups impair Brazilian trade negotiations
Journal Title: Conjuntura Austral: journal of the Global South - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 43
Abstract
Over the last years, Brazil has aimed its trade policy at new trade agreements. Nevertheless, the country’s trade negotiations face serious difficulties in what regards agricultural goods. The foreign lobby has a relevant role in such deadlocks, and Brazilian public and private sectors’ actions should bear it in mind.
