Government spending and exports of commodities like soy beans and metals to fast-growing countries in Asia, have propelled Brazil's economy to sixth place in the world. But red-hot growth when Latin America's largest economy clocked in a 7.5% growth rate in 2010 appears to have ïŹzzled out.
The economy stalled in May following an unexpected drop in retail sales. That heightened fears for what was one of the few bright spots of the world economy, making it the worst performer among Brics nations. GDP grew just 0.2% in the ïŹrst quarter year-on-year, marking the third straight quarter of near-zero growth.
There seem to be few signs that GDP growth will head back up above the 2.6% posted last year. The Bank of Brazil expects growth to be lower than 2.5%. The drop in retail sales raised worries over Brazil's consumer-led growth model, which was fuelled by rising incomes and easy credit. In fact, the amount of loans that could not be paid back hit an all-time high in May, underlining how Brazilians are increasingly struggling to keep debt under control. That prompted banks to tighten lending, and the central bank cut interest rates for the eighth straight time in July to 8%.
đ QuestĂŁo 66
Prospects for the Brazilian economy are
(a) promising, because interest rates are being cut.
(b) worse that before the May ïŹgures were released.
(c) among the least hopeful in the world today.
(d) improving in the view of the Bank of Brazil.
(e) expected to rise to 7.5% again this year.

On June 22, 2012, the Paraguayan Senate invoked a clause in the constitution which authorized it to impeach the president for "poor performance in his duties." The President was Fernando Lugo, who had been elected some three years earlier and whose term was about to end in April 2013. Under the rules, Lugo was limited to a single term of ofïŹce.
Lugo charged that this was a coup, and if not technically illegal, certainly illegitimate. Almost every Latin American government agreed with this analysis, denouncing the destitution, and cutting relations in various ways with Paraguay.
The removal of Lugo had the negative consequence for those who made the coup of making possible the one thing the Paraguayan Senate had been blocking for years. Paraguay is a member of the common market Mercosur, along with Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. Venezuela had applied to join. This required ratiïŹcation by the legislatures of all ïŹve member states. All had long since given their assent except the Paraguayan Senate. After the coup, Mercosur suspended Paraguay, and immediately welcomed Venezuela as a member.
đ QuestĂŁo 69
President Lugo of Paraguay was removed from ofïŹce in a process he considered to be
(a) a poor performance of his duties.
(b) premature and destitute.
(c) of dubious legality and legitimacy.
(d) unfair after a full three years in ofïŹce.
(e) technically unnecessary in view of 2013 elections.

ARMENIA tends to feature in the news because of its problems (history, geography, demography and economics to name but a few). But a new report says not all is doom and gloom. The parliamentary elections in May showed signiïŹ cant improvement. Media coverage was more balanced, and the authorities permitted greater freedom of assembly, expression and movement than in previous years. That bodes well for the future.
The economy is still recovering from the global ïŹnancial crisis, which saw GDP contract by 14.2% in 2009. In the same period, the construction sector contracted by more than 40%. Remittances from the diaspora dropped by 30%. That led Forbes magazine to label Armenia the world's second worst performing economy in 2011. Over one-third of the country lives below the poverty line. Complaints of corruption are widespread, and inïŹation is high.
Low rates of tax collection - 19.3% of GDP, compared with a 40% average in EU countries - limit the government's reach. Cracking down on tax evasion could increase government revenue by over $400 million, says the World Bank. A few, high-proïŹle businessmen dominate the economy. Their monopolies and oligopolies put a signiïŹcant brake on business development. Their inïŹuence also weakens political will for the kind of reforms that the country sorely needs.
