Rio de Janeiro, between samba and «favelas»

Brazil is considered one of the current emerging powers. Beyond its financial evolution, it has always been considered a country of sharp contrasts. A country where music, samba, football, caipirinha, Copacabana, the tropical forests, etc. are mixed up with meninos da rua, favelas, pollution, deforestation… And Rio de Janeiro is a good example of this remarkable diversity and contrast.
