Marcelo Neri lectures at iFHC and is commended by President Dilma for his book on the new middle class

On Wednesday, April 25, Marcelo Neri lectured about his new book The New Middle Class at the Fernando Henrique Cardoso Institute. The invitation made me feel honored for Fernando Henrique Cardoso's invaluable contributions to the country, not only as president but as a great sociologist, said Neri. On the following day, President Dilma commended the study at a ceremony in Rio de Janeiro. I recommend Marcelo Neri's book, ??The New Middle Class?, one of the best studies available. I would like to commend and thank him; he can be sure of how much he inspires us. I deeply thank him for all his contribution to the country, added Dilma. See the complete quote at http://cps.fgv.br/dilma_ncml  The book, launched in March, has a new edition with comments by Lula, Obama, Armínio Fraga and Gustavo Franco, as well as a quotation by Barack Obama. The book was the topic of more than ten interview shows for domestic and international TV networks. The impact of the research can be seen at the book's web site at www.fgv.br/cps/livroncm  Today, the research was mentioned in a Financial Times' article.  The most recent research on the New Middle Class is already translated in English at www.fgv.br/cps/ncm/eng and the international highlights of CPS can be seen at http://www.fgv.br/cps/comunica/
