	Why Was Brazil Different? The Contexts of Independence - Council on Foreign Relations
		In sum, Brazilian intellectuals, traders, and patriots might espouse “liberalism,” but their zeal was strictly limited to a desire for access to markets, protection of property, and guarantees that debts would be paid.
		Brazilians increasingly saw the measures of the Lisbon Cortes, strongly supported by the hated Portuguese merchants and immigrants in Brazil, as an attempt at “recolonization” which would turn back the clock on the thirteen years during which Rio had been center of government.
		The alternative model for Brazilian development, in which European immigration and free laborers would replace slavery, was not to be, at least as long as emperors ruled in Rio de Janeiro; and, as a consequence, the slave trade continued until mid-century, slavery until the 1880s.
