- More about Precarious Democracy: Ethnographies of Hope, Despair, and Resistance in Brazil
Precarious Democracy explores how Brazil's progressive gains were dismantled by the far right-wing politician Jair Bolsonaro, drawing on rich ethnographic portraits from megacities to rural Amazonia.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 238 pages

Publisher: Rutgers University Press
Brazil experienced significant changes in the second decade of the 21st century, with the outgoing president Lula leaving office in 2010 with almost 90% approval. However, by 2019, those progressive gains were being dismantled as the far-right politician Jair Bolsonaro assumed the presidency of a bitterly divided country. Precarious Democracy delves into the transformations made and experienced by Brazilians far from the halls of power, using rich ethnographic portraits to demonstrate the necessity of ethnography for understanding social and political change. The book brings together powerful and intimate stories and portraits from Brazil's megacities to rural Amazonia, providing crucial insights on one of the most epochal periods of change in Brazilian history.
