Armanti Edwards steps under center; his breath, cloudy and heavy in the cold, is like the exhaust of a racecar. He surveys the field and barks an audible before taking the snap. Dropping back, he bounces slightly on his toes, poised, balanced, alert. Then, like tires hitting the pavement, he takes off downfield.

But Lula stuck to the market-oriented fiscal reforms of his predecessor, Fernando Henrique Cardoso. Those policies, plus a windfall from high global prices for Brazilian products like soybeans and steel, helped Lula tame the country's notorious hyperinflation and create a boom...
