    Checks and balances turned into vendettas (preview)

    In any democratic republic, it’s normal for the executive, legislative, and judicial branches to clash. That’s a sign of mutual oversight. It’s also normal for politicians to make concessions to their adversaries. That’s a sign of democracy. But the sequence of recent events in Brazilian politics has turned into a sweeping narrative about what happens when these dynamics of checks and balances slide into sheer revanchism and bargaining over the rule of law.

    What needs repair in Brazil's public sector machine? (preview)

    In a country with 27 state governments, more than 5,000 city halls, and around 12 million people working in the public sector, calls to reform — or improve — Brazil’s civil service never really seem to go away. We talked to Brazil's special secretary for state transformation — and asked him to compare the reform proposals coming from the lower house with the Lula administration's approach.  Send us your feedback Support the show

    Brazil’s Central Bank led a revolution

    Five years ago, Brazil’s Central Bank launched Pix — a public, instant payment system that lets people send money to each other at no cost. And it was a real shake-up. Until then, Brazilians were used to paying fees for almost any transfer. Over the following years, Pix kept expanding, adding new features like recurring payments, scheduled transfers, cash withdrawals at retail stores, tap-to-pay, and even instant refunds in case of fraud.

    Supreme Court to Brazilians: “Follow the money” (preview)

    Over the past decade, Brazilian lawmakers have steadily built up procedures to expand their powers over the purse. That has included increasing the overall volume of congressional grants; making a large share of them mandatory spending; limiting the Executive’s discretion over when to release those funds, and creating ways to erase transparency and traceability from the process. A perfect recipe for corruption, which has now trickled down to state and municipal levels. But the Supreme Court has just ordered the three branches of government to run a nationwide awareness campaign — from December through March — to explain how congressional grants are executed. The idea: show the public where they can access information about these amendments, teach people how to track where the money goes, and encourage them to report irregularities or wrongdoing. Will that finally be enough? Send us your feedback Support the show
