Abstract
This SIP project was undertaken in Brazil because of
a great interest of mine in that country. What I have
attempted to gain through this study is a "picture" of
representation and political ideals in a second-world
nation, bettering both my understanding of political science
and of Brazil. Uberlandia was chosen as the city for this
study because I had previously lived there and am somewhat
familiar with the families that live there and the general
"mood" of the city.
Of course this study only incorporates one city for
analysis. I cannot claim that what is true in Uberlandia
is true for all of Brazil. However, what was found in
Uberlandia can be found in at least some other Brazilian
cities, especially those located in the Western portion of
the state of Minas Gerais, in which Uberlandia is located.
