Brazilian Elections and the Stakes for Democracy

This week's Global Research News Hour examines the underlying currents pushing the presidency in the direction of a hard right wing admirer of past dictatorial governments. We'll also place these developments within a larger geopolitical context. Guests include the noted veteran Brazilian journalist Pepe Escobar and Professor Michel Chossudovsky of the Centre for Research on Globalization. We will also get the perspective of a Brazilian political activist and student currently living in Winnipeg.
