The Dark Night of Brazil

On this week's episode of World Review from the New Statesman, Jeremy Cliffe, in Berlin, and Emily Tamkin, in Washington DC, are joined by Roberto Mangabeira Unger, Roscoe Pound Professor of Law at Harvard and a former Minister in the Lula and Rousseff governments, to discuss whether Brazil's stagnation will lead to crisis, if Lula can make a successful return to politics, and what the similarities are between Brazil and the United States.
