More fire, more crime, more death and a globally important ecosystem driven ever more rapidly towards a point of no return. That’s the prospect for the Amazon rainforest if Flávio Bolsonaro wins Brazil’s election My take www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

Public dialogue tonight organized by @WZB_Berlin: International Order Under Pressure – Is It Time for Readjustment? www.wzb.eu/en/events/international-… #Berlin #Europe #NATO #US #China #Russia #Democracy #GlobalSouth

A large audience attends a formal panel discussion in a modern conference hall. Four panelists sit onstage while a speaker stands at a lectern to the right. A projection screen behind them displays the session title, “International Order Under Pressure – Is it Time for Readjustment?”, as part of an interdisciplinary WZB conference. Overhead stage lights and audiovisual equipment hang from the ceiling.

I thought about buying a newspaper to see what the German press is saying about the Brazilian elections, but then I remembered how unlikely it is that I’d find any substantial coverage of such a distant and apparently irrelevant partner.

This Saturday, the #SPFC women’s team beat their biggest rivals in the Brazilian final, in front of around 50,000 people, reportedly a record attendance for women’s club football in Latin America. Only afterwards did I discover that Brazil’s men’s national team was also playing that day.

It made me wonder whether this says something about Brazil’s democratic tradition. Could our history of fragile democratic institutions and limited democratic traditions also help explain why moderate political forces struggle to organize outside the major parties or within civil society?

I was checking all the vice-presidential candidates and was reminded of Brazil’s small parties on the left: PSTU, PCB, PCO and UP. I’d never realized so clearly before how, despite their differences, these parties tend to occupy the more radical end of the political spectrum.

Will the American regime, seemingly on the verge of democratic collapse itself, try to interfere in the democracy of the largest country in its “backyard”? Of course. Even when US democracy was far more stable, Washington intervened in Latin American democracies. Why expect otherwise now?

In 1964, the Brazilian military’s initial plan was not to remain in power for so long. But the taste for power took hold, and the military regime lasted 21 years.

Unfortunately, I'm afraid the far right will advance to the second round against Lula, and they will win like they did in 2018. The largest and wealthiest country in South America will bend its knees to the American regime.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

A large handmade cardboard caricature of Peter Thiel lies on the pavement. His face is attached to a dark red, devil-like body with horns and an elongated arm.

A hand-painted protest banner reads “THIEL SHALL NOT PASS” in large red and yellow letters, with a rainbow painted in the upper-right corner.
