| Summary: | This article attempts to understand the social and political crisis in today’s Brazil in relation to its history, trying to go further than conjunctural analyses that appear most frequently in opinion journals. I examine Dilma Rousseff’s impeachment and the conservatism which emerged on this occasion as a product of the socio-political structures and the political cultures that are linked to the formation of the national state, to the slave past of the country, and to the construction of the Republican regime and its project of modernization and exclusion. Synthetically, I analyze the conflict between legislative and executive powers as one of the characteristics of the Republican regime in Brazil, the use of coup-like interventions in moments of political and social crisis, the authoritarian values present in the longue durée of Brazilian history, and finally finishing with a short analysis of the dead-ends of the current situation. |
