Book: The Party Of Order: The Consservatives, The State, And Slavery In The Brazilian Monarchy, 1831-1871 "This work is a very considerable contribution to our understanding of Brazil's emergence as a nation-state. It provides a historical explanation of why Brazil continues to be--almost two centuries after independence--highly hierarchical, conservative, and unegalitarian in terms of race, education and wealth. This book is no less valuable as a study of the emergence and the dynamics of party politics in Imperial Brazil."--Roderick J. Barman, Professor Emeritus, University of British Columbia
"Needell has produced a detailed, elegantly written book about the Regency and most of the Second Empire...His lively narrative, judicious quotes, and thumbnail biographies make this both enjoyable and essential reading for historians of Brazil."--Colonial Latin American Historical Review
