Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. In the 1860s, Brazil was grappling with implementing a constitutional monarchy after its independence from Portugal. This book explores two key constitutional issues that threatened to impede this process. It examines the legal arguments, both supporting and contesting, that would allow the emperor's daughter to assume a role in the Council of State, despite a law that seemed to exclusively permit male heirs. Furthermore, the book also delves into a separate debate surrounding whether the emperor's son-in-law, and future heir to the throne, should be granted Brazilian citizenship. An in-depth analysis of legal and historical records illuminates the complex interplay of constitutional interpretation and the practical challenges of establishing a stable and representative government in Brazil during this tumultuous period. Through a comprehensive examination of these issues, this book provides valuable insights into the dynamics of political power, gender roles, and the evolution of constitutionalism in Brazil.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the political history of Brazil from the country's establishment as a monarchy through the disastrous War of the Triple Alliance. The author, a prominent statesman and journalist, argues that Brazil in the 1860s, despite constitutional guarantees, was far from a free nation. Instead, a small, unrepresentative elite held sway, squandering public funds and dragging the nation into a ruinous conflict that it had no interest in fighting. The author contends that this state of affairs resulted from the growing apathy of the Brazilian populace, thereby demonstrating the importance of public opinion and vigilance in preserving liberty.
