A Brazilian inflation fighter becomes immortal
巴西通货膨胀斗士永垂不朽
The Academy of Letters elects a liberal economist
文学院推举出一位自由主义经济学家
Apr 12th 2017 | SÃO PAULO
BRAZILIANS who remember the
hyperinflationary
1980s cheered the news on April 7th that prices rose by just 4.57% in the year to March. Inflation has not come that close to the central bank’s target of 4.5% in seven years.
In a fitting coincidence, on the same day one of the architects of the Real Plan, which tamed inflation in 1994, donned the gold-and-green livery of the “immortals”, as members of the Brazilian Academy of Letters are known.
在4月7日，仍记着80年代恶性通货膨胀的巴西人民，为今年3月物价只上涨了4.57%的新闻而欢呼。通货膨胀率还没有达到央行七年内4.5%的目标。

Edmar Bacha is just the third economist to join the august group, whose 40 lifetime appointments are reserved for towering intellectuals and the finest wordsmiths. His election last November (by members of the academy) was one of the most contentious in its 120-year history. It may also be a sign of the times.
Edmar Bacha正好是第三位加入这个神圣组织的经济学家，这个组织在其40年存在期内的职务都是留给那些顶尖文豪和知识分子。去年11月，Edmar Bacha的当选（由学院的成员们）是在其120年历史上最具有争议性的。它可能是一个时代的标志。
