These two works demonstrate the scope of his reflection. As a true disciple of his English mentors, Maxwell closely followed the fortunes of Portugal and Brazil, analyzing essential historical transitions: the Brazilian independence movement and the revolution that led to democracy and Portuguese decolonization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eUnlike many historians who neglect to consider the present, Maxwell presents in this book a series of essays that unite, in the same clear-sighted thought, the past and the most immediate present.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e - Luiz Felipe Alencastro, Professor of History at the University of Paris-Sorbonne\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175472480508,"sku":"9788521905226","price":59.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/2c1df27bba633fd259115750198e79b8.jpg?v=1778322339"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/kenneth-maxwell.oembed","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
