The ascent of Brasilia: Sharpening Brazil’s foreign policy

Monocle flies the yellow and green flag in Issue 33 as it looks at how Brasilia is becoming the diplomatic capital that matters. Securing new alliances, beefing up its diplomatic corps, lobbying for power and expanding its embassy outposts – Monocle visits a nation out to change the world order, no matter whose feathers it ruffles.

From alliance makers to breakers, Monocle meets President Isaias Afwerki of Eritrea, which has fought with most of its neighbours and declined offers of aid from the West. Monocle’s Nairobi correspondent, Steve Bloomfield, feels the full force of Eritrea’s mistrust, including being accused of spying for British intelligence.

Also in this issue’s Expo Monocle attends the Winter Military Games in Valle d’Aosta, Italy, where armed forces from around the world are given the chance to bond with each other and promote peace while hurtling down mountains on skis.

Elsewhere in the issue:

— Hong Kong City Survey: Monocle goes behind the gleaming steel and glass towers of the economic powerhouse to unveil fresh boutiques, innovative dishes, art, culture, architecture and buzzing neighbourhoods outside the city centre.

— Design Directory: Our annual design directory reveals the best products and players in the worlds of architecture, home accessories and furniture.

— And it’s Monocle Shop China time, with our new seasonal space opening in Hong Kong at Lane Crawford’s Pacific Place Store on 15 April.

— Monocle’s editor in chief Tyler Brûlé interviews Dr John Chipman, director- general of the International Institute for Strategic Studies, who recently launched an in-depth assessment of the military capabilities of 170 countries.

— Taipei Cycle Show – the wheels go round in this Monocle film documenting the world’s biggest bicycle trade fair.
