"THE SHOW MUST GO ON!"
Venue:
Río de Janeiro, Brasil

Topics:
As developing democracies confront crisis after crisis, electoral campaigns and political communications in general are key factors for the political process to succeed. Brazilian campaigns, in particular, with their daily staples of "free TV", characterized by their intensity and creativity, are undoubtedly one of Democracy’s greatest show on earth.
We invite you to a three-day conference in Rio de Janeiro, which will be dedicated to these topics and will provide a great variety of speeches and discussions, together with unique social events as can only be experienced in Rio.
The conference will include panels led by top Latin American, North American and European consultants, who will present reports on the situation and electoral processes in countries throughout the world.
Don’t miss this great opportunity to visit Rio and get the latest information on topics such as:
• The politics of terror. US/ World politics a year after 9/11.
• (Why?) Is the US (suddenly?) unpopular throughout the world.
