Terrified π¨π°π±
This week Iβve started writing a short book about Foro de SΓ£o Paulo, connecting the end of the Cold War in Latin America to the regionβs current political tumult. Feels cool and good.

Yes! Wow, Shafiq, good to βseeβ you man

unwittingly set myself up as punchline for countless Pagliacci jokes (doing big numbers on twitter π)

Surely this president will stop at Venezuela. No other Latin American capital need worry. Just let him have this and no more actions will follow. All is fine.
Such a pleasure being back on @amprestigepod.bsky.social to discuss my Lula book at length with Danny and Derek β€οΈ
I donβt necessarily endorse shopping on the Zon, but if you are so compelled there are only 3 copies of my book left in paperback. Recommended if youβre interested in Lula and the twentieth-century evolution of leftist politics in Latin Americaβs largest nation!

Now unpaywalled: @apagliar.bsky.social on Lula's long fight for democracy in Brazil.
The Brazilian president once argued that democracy will founder where inequality reigns. Today, he sees fighting inequality as democracyβs animating mission.

No other way to put it than to note that this is just the craziest speech Iβve ever seen a US president deliver in a setting like this
βAll options for stabilization are on the tableβ for Argentina while all options for *de*stabilization are on the table for Brazil π€
