Description
Summary:This conjunctural note searches to contribute to a better knowledge of the current Brazilian political scene, characterized by a paroxysm, a polarization and perceptible contradictions when the subject is sexual and gender diversity. In this context, the different Republic forces show that their ways are in opposite directions. At the same time, we can observe a sensible lack of harmony between the social world, in which the respect for such diversity seems more and more incorporated into the population daily life, and the conservative discourses expressed in pulpits and joined up with those pronounced by politicians on their platforms. Like what happen to many other important themes, the contemporary world seems shattered.
