A really interesting thread about Brazilian political economy in relation to the elections played out through recent music.

O Brasil é o maior exportador de carne do mundo, mas mais da metade de sua população não pode mais comprar carne. A agenda de austeridade implantada após o golpe em 2016 e o governo Bolsonaro são os principais responsáveis pelo país voltar ao Mapa da Fome.

Very happy to have written this piece about upcoming Brazilian elections, Beef, and food politics for @jacobin 🥩🇧🇷

Due to rising food prices, 55 percent of Brazilians have reportedly stopped buying red meat. Food security could be a deciding issue in Lula’s presidential campaign against incumbent Jair Bolsonaro. https://t.co/9jAw63Pm0T
