The de-democratization process underway in contemporary Brazil is explored in depth in the book Democracy and Brazil: Collapse and Regression. The relative political stability that characterized domestic politics in the 2000s came to an abrupt end with the sudden emergence of a series of massive protests in 2013, which were followed by the controversial impeachment of Dilma Rousseff in 2016 and the election of Jair Bolsonaro in 2018. In this new, more conservative period in Brazilian politics, a series of institutional reforms deepened the distance between citizens and representatives. To fully understand the current political crisis in Brazil, it is essential to consider the continual growth of right-wing and ultra-right discourse, on the one hand, and the neoliberal ideology that pervades the minds of large parts of the Brazilian elite, on the other.
To shed light on the ongoing political turmoil, the book brings together 20 experts on Brazil from diverse fields, including geopolitics, gender, religion, media, indigenous populations, right-wing strategies, and new forms of coup. Updated analyses enriched with historical perspective help to illuminate the intricate issues that will determine the country's fate in years to come.
Democracy and Brazil: Collapse and Regression will be of interest to students and scholars of Brazilian Politics and History, Latin America, and the broader field of democracy studies.
