In September 2016, the United Nations formally adopted a new agenda of seventeen 'New Global Development Goals.' These are clear objectives, seeming to suggest that the definition of 'development' is straightforward and that the end point reached by a country is more important than the paths taken to get there. However, the concept of 'development' has evolved very rapidly over the last fifty years, becoming increasingly complex and interdisciplinary. Starting out as almost synonymous with 'economic growth', today it includes concerns about reducing social imbalances, the environment, culture, democracy and human rights. This book analyses the evolution of all these elements in Brazil throughout its history, with a particular focus on the last few decades.
