  The American concept of elective justice. Rui Barbosa, a well-known expert in British and American jurisprudence from Brazil, explained that: Before moving from the British Isles to the [European] continent, the old inspiration of Anglo-Saxon legal genius formed a second patria in America. The jury was one of the oldest organizations in England's North American colonies.271 The United States served as an example to liberal thinkers like Barbosa of the process of democratization of the American continent's governmental systems. This rise of public authority mirrored radical liberal ambitions for popular participation in the administration of justice and the maintenance of order. However, this decentralising experiment did not address the concerns voiced by radical liberals about the distribution of public power with the central government. Despite the early start, it wasn't until the late 1860s that the demands for regional autonomy and republicanism resurfaced as a rallyi

  People from Brazil and North America have a lot in common. Cosmopolitan towns like Sao Paulo and Rio in Brazil are influenced by people from all over the world. The way we live is a little different because Brazilians are friendlier. As Brazilians, we're more willing to accept European and American culture than Latin American culture. The main reason most Brazilians don't think of themselves as Latino is that the Hispanic language and society are different from ours. It's a hard truth that might offend people who love Latin culture and people who support unity, but it's still the truth. Another thing that might be unclear is that America is the name of the whole continent Not just the northern country, which is officially called the United States of America but is often just called "America." In this way, then, Brazil and the United States are the same.  Americans seem to be very proud of their country and say that it's easy to tell that someone is Ameri

  In Tehran this past May, both Brazil's huge global goals and its newfound political weight were clear to see. That's when Brazilian President Lula da Silva proudly said that he and his Turkish colleague had successfully persuaded Iran to move a big part of its uranium enrichment program to another country. This was an achievement that the US and other world powers had not been able to achieve before. Washington, on the other hand, wasn't cheering. Lula's success in negotiations made Secretary of State Clinton very angry because it was seen as a threat to the fragile agreement that the US had finally reached with the five permanent members of the UN Security Council to punish Iran for breaking the terms of the nuclear treaty with new, harsher sanctions. As Lula, Brazil's most popular president ever, gets close to the end of his second and final term, ties between the US and Brazil are very tense. The two countries have had many public disagreements in the last two

  The Mercosur Waterways diplomatic crisis refers to a regional conflict between Argentina and other nations in the Río de la Plata Basin. The dispute revolves around the issue of unrestricted navigation in the rivers of the region. The countries involved in this conflict include Paraguay, Bolivia, Uruguay, and Brazil, all of which are part of the primary waterway of Mercosur. Mercosur has requested the unilateral removal of tolls on the Argentine sector of the waterway, citing the possible harm it could cause to the region's development, trade, and economic integration.  The Permanent Transportation Commission of the La Plata Basin (CPTCP), consisting of the users of the navigable waterway from the five signatory countries of the agreement, has officially confirmed that the river in the Santa Fe-Confluencia section possesses hydro-morphological conditions that naturally provide sufficient depths for safe navigation of vessels with a draft of 10 feet for 24 hours, without requiring
