| Brazilian election 2010, Lula Rouseff |
In the Brazilian general elections on 3rd of October, the candidate of the PT (Partido de los Trabajadores), Dilma Rousseff, with the backing of outgoing President Lula, maintained a unswerving escort throughout the first encompassing of the campaign.
The elections in Brazil were discernible by colossal illusions and impending in the economic permanence of the country and the hope that this augments which will carry on the following the crisis in 2008/9. The expansion in Brazilian GDP this year will be more than 7%.
Together with the growth of consumer spending in the recent period (fuelled by public subsidies and the growth of credit), there is the sensation of a better life for millions of Brazilians.
The misleading consequence flowing from the hammering of the PT as a party that was formally linked to the great effort of the functioning class was most clearly verified in this election.
The task of building a socialist left alternative, taken on by P-SOL and other smaller forces on the left, despite weaknesses and not adequate and mistakes, encountered full-size impediment especially the illusions which have came up into highlights in “Lulismo” and the “left” policies he has followed which has privileged big finance capital
