Abstract: Abstract Krasilshchikov presents his concluding remarks as a set of questions concerning the future prospects of Brazil and other emerging countries in the light of their current problems. In particular, what are the opportunities for Brazil to abandon the current path of conservative modernisation? Will it occur as a result of the external shock, like in the 1930s? Will Brazil be able to leverage USA-China controversies for useful development? As the author argues, the answers to these questions will depend, to a large extent, on the attitudes of the country’s elite and the activity of opposition mass movements. At the same time, the case of Brazil dispels the naïve belief in the ‘bright future’ of emerging countries and shows such sentiments to be wishful thinking.
