Political Structures and Democracy in Uruguay
This book analyzes the nature and development of democracy in Uruguay, and reflects upon the future prospects of Uruguayan democracy. It looks above all at political institutions - the electoral system, the party system, and the composition of executive power - and how they have shaped politics in this small nation that for decades stood out as one of the two most established democracies in the Third World. It provides an examination of the 1980s, and gives background information on earlier periods of Uruguayan democracy.
Introduction to Uruguay
Uruguay is a small country located in South America, sandwiched between Brazil and Argentina. Despite its size, it is one of the most prosperous countries on the continent, with a strong economy, high standard of living, and a relatively low poverty rate. The country is known for its progressive policies, including legalized cannabis and same-sex marriage, as well as its friendly and welcoming people. The capital city, Montevideo, is a bustling metropolis with a rich culture and history. Visitors can enjoy exploring the city's historic neighborhoods, admiring its stunning architecture, and sampling its delicious cuisine. Outside of the city, Uruguay boasts picturesque beaches, rolling hills, and stunning national parks. With a stable political climate, low crime rates, and a high quality of life, Uruguay is an ideal destination for travelers looking to discover a different side of South America.
Brazil in the Uruguay Round of the GATT
First published in 1998, this volume analyses Brazil’s strategy in the Uruguay Round, focusing on the issue of services. Three different moments were chosen for analysis. The first was during discussions before the launch of the Uruguay Round. During this period, Brazil led the Less Developed Countries (LDCs), in obstructing the inclusion of services on the agenda. The Second was during the launch of the Uruguay Round, when Brazil persisted with this policy. This second period is referred to as the initial position of Brazil in the Uruguay Round. The third was Montreal, in 1988, when Brazil supported the principles which guided an agreement on services. After this turning point, Brazil’s position in the Round was increasingly supportive of an agreement, not only in services, but in all fields.

There's advice, too, for active travellers who can rattle their whips on cattle-ranching estancias and spin their sticks in a game of polo or two and for nature enthusiasts keen to watch wildlife in the western wetlands and birds in Cabo Polonio and Santa Teresa. Plus, the book investigates the Brazilian influences behind Uruguay's music and dance, and the country's Afro-Uruguayan culture, most noticeable in Carnaval.
