“…13. While Bohn (2011) does not find that Bolsa Família influenced the electoral preferences of low-income citizens between the 2002 and 2006 elections, a number of other scholars find positive associations between Lula's re-election in 2006 and support for the Bolsa Família program (Hunter and Power 2007;Licio et al 2009;Marques andMendes 2006, 2007;Moura 2007;Nicolau and Peixoto 2007;Soares and Terron 2008;Zucco 2008Zucco , 2013Zucco and Power 2013). Furthermore, Licio et al (2009) point out that being a beneficiary of the Bolsa Família program also increases positive evaluations of the incumbent government while it is in office.…”

Conditional cash transfer programs may boost the electoral fortunes of incumbents among beneficiary groups, but do they also influence recipient attitudes toward state legitimacy? This article examines the relationship between Brazil's Bolsa Família program and recipients’ sense of the Brazilian state's political legitimacy, from 2007 to 2014. Using AmericasBarometer data and propensity score matching, this study provides evidence that targeted cash benefits correlate with citizens’ views of the state, but that this relationship is limited to increasing trust in core state institutions, local government, and incumbent political actors. Diffuse dimensions of regime legitimacy, including recipients’ sense of political community, support for regime principles, and retrospective perceptions of national economic performance, are largely unaffected by the receipt of targeted benefits. Over time, the evidence also suggests that the impact of program receipt on these measures of support remains largely unchanged.

“…The Bolsa Família programme has played a critical role in lifting millions of families out of poverty, and has been justly praised around the world. It also has had an influential role in determining the outcome of elections (Abensur et al, 2007;de Moura, 2007). With the campaign for Brazil's October election under way, opinion polls in March 2010 indicated that the leading opposition candidate was slightly ahead of the governing party's candidate among the electorate at large.…”

Brazil's Amazon forest in mitigating global warming: unresolved controversies

Brazil's Amazon rainforest provides an important environmental service with its storage of carbon, thereby reducing global warming. A growing number of projects and proposals intend to reward carbon storage services. Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation is currently a key issue for negotiations on an international agreement that is to take effect in 2013. Various issues require decisions that will have substantial impacts on both the effectiveness of mitigation and the scale of Amazonia's potential role. These decisions include the effects that money generated from payments can have, the spatial scale of mitigation (e.g. projects or countries and sub-national political units), whether to have voluntary or mandatory markets, and whether these reductions will generate carbon credits to offset emissions elsewhere. It is argued that national-level programmes, combined with a national target under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, are the best solution for Brazil in terms of both capturing international funding and stimulating the major cuts in global emissions that are needed to minimize climate risk to the Amazon rainforest. The high likelihood of passing a tipping point for maintaining the Amazon rainforest implies the need for urgency in altering current negotiating positions.La forêt tropicale amazonienne du Brésil fournit un service environnemental important en vertu du stockage de carbone, de ce fait réduisant l'impact le réchauffement planétaire. Un nombre croissant de projets et de propositions visent à récompenser les services de stockage de carbone. La Réduction des émissions de la déforestation et la dégradation des forêts (REDD) est un enjeu actuel clé pour les négociations sur un accord international devant entrer en vigueur en 2013. Diverses questions exigent des décisions qui auront un impact considérable sur l'efficacité des mesures d'atténuation ainsi que l'ampleur du rôle potentiel de l'Amazonie. Ces décisions portent sur les questions suivantes: quelle peut être la portée des fonds générés par les paiements; quelle est l'échelle spatiale des actions d'atténuation (par exemple projets, pays ou unités politiques sous-nationales); avoir des marchés volontaires ou obligatoires; et si ces réductions généreraient des crédits de carbone pour compenser les émissions ailleurs. Il est soutenu que des programmes nationaux, unis à une cible nationale sous l'égide de la Convention Cadre des Nations Unies sur les Changements Climatiques, est la meilleure solution pour le Brésil en vue de capturer un financement international tout en stimulant des réductions importantes des émissions mondiales requises pour minimiser les risques climatiques pour la forêt amazonienne. La forte probabilité de passage à un point de basculement pour le maintien de la forêt amazonienne implique la nécessité d'urgence à modifier les positions actuelles de négociation.

“…A única relação observada foi entre assentamentos mais antigos e a prática de maior número de atividades de subsistência, tais como a agricultura de grãos (milho e feijão), tubérculos (mandioca, macaxeira e batata) e hortaliças, pecuária e a avicultura (r=0,36; P<0,05). Outros estudos também mostram que a melhoria da renda familiar não é observada com o passar do tempo nas regiões Norte, Nordeste e Sul, provavelmente, em função do baixo nível de escolaridade e baixa efetividade das cooperativas, fatores que determinam substancialmente a melhoria da renda rural e organização política (MONTE & PEREIRA, 2009 (MOURA, 2007).…”
