Iran 1963. Some of Shah Pahlavi's attitudes have impacts similar to the ones that changed Brazilian economy in 90's and 2000's, and culminated in the social corrosion we see here nowadays.
- CONTROL AND FROZEN PRICES: According to https://g1.globo.com/mundo/noticia/2019/02/11/ira-as-razoes-de-uma-revolucao-que-ja-dura-40-anos.ghtml , this amend disturbed the market in Iran and comanded several traders to jail.
The same happened to Brazil during the Government of Itamar Franco (1992) https://www.mises.org.br/Article.aspx?id=1294
- LAND REFORM: The same web site says that the Land Reform of Iran in the 60's was necessary and welcome at first, but later the provision displeased the category of farmers. Several rural workers eneded up living in the slums.
The landowners were dissatisfied with the reforms, due to land confiscated.
In Brazil, although the INCRA has been created to settle families down, asserting the distribution of land and approaching production, many landowners become dissatisfied with the rural population being used as maneuver mass of oppositional political parties that can't revenue them with the investment for aiming production.
- The G1 website affirms that cultural and social changes were criticized by influent religious levels of the Iranian society, such as the rights delegated to women and the penetration of the Western society into the country, as to limitate the influence of the Islam.
In Brazil, the cultural changes, such as the LBGT movement and single parenting had a different overview from the religious aspect, and concerning Catholicism as our official religion, with which we intermediate business in Europe (by the census of our annual Tithe. Europe is the front door to business between West and the Middle East. According to the newspaper "Empregos e Negócios" May/31st/2019 p.3 - Brazil's exportations to the Middle East have grown 20% in the first trimester of 2019); This negative overview (from the Catholic Church point of view), concerning the cultural changes of our country, have limited our range and reach onto business abroad for several years. The
Vatican is only now making amends upon the new customs of the societies of the West.
- The website says also, that the Iranian Middle Class of the 60's held onto the education they had acquired to believe that they would be privileged by the regime of the Shah. Nevertheless, the Insitutions (in the hands of the elite) downgraded the Middle Class by cornering their options. In the early 90's, Brazilians had more access to credit cards and credit at the financial institutions. However, with the first symptoms of the economical breakdown in 2004, the Middle Class became unnassisted by the Institutions that privileged the elite. This subject also, has been seriously discussed with the amends of the approval of the Welfare Reform of 2019.
With all the due stress and pressure, the Iranian people started a Revolution in the 70's. The Iranian revolutionary guard has been considered as a terrorist group by the USA (statement given last April).
Some may say that the USA regards opposing to the politics of nuclear agreement signed in Tehran in 2015, just because of the rivalry over the monopoly of oil Trade.
But it dwells further.
(I believe) Trump worries mostly about the amount of oil that Iran commerce in expense to the Enriched Uranium they Trade back and forth. It is not a choice of Arabian countries whether be inserted in the economy with products that sustain a ballast or not.
However, whereas still not inserted in such ballast by the TISEA and TISE, it is an accordance for such countries that their only good - the oil - would be Traded by the ducts of the Black Market https://tarafatosefilosofia.blogspot.com/2018/05/irans-beauty-indeed.html
The USA loses millions of dollars with this, because some of the stocks of the oil belong to American Institutions, and they would thus, be contributing consistently to be destroyed by the bombs the enemy constroy.
+++++++
The parallels built between Brazil and Iran show us that the economical conflicts that happened in Iran in the 60's are very similar to the ones ocurring in Brazil for the past 30 years.
The consequences haven't been different, though.
Rio de Janeiro undergoes a civil war of factions and drug trafficking, heavily armed that kills dozens of people every day.
If the difference between those two countries be the proportion of weaponry (rifles at one side and missiles at the other), it is correct to affirm that due to the same social aspects that led Iran to a Revolution, the security and the economy of both have been jeopardized.
I have heard some people say that the day will approach when Brazilians put their hands in arms again, like it was in the 60's and 70's, allowing a Civil Revolution.
But I believe it is more intelligent for us to learn from Iran's mistakes and contribute for the improvements that the Government is trying to approve, beginning with the Welfare Reform, followed by the Tributary and Anti-Crime Reforms. This would allow our country to receive more investments and our economy will grow - soon.
