Open-access REVOLUTION IN BRAZIL, 18TH TO 21ST CENTURIES: THE HISTORY OF A CONCEPT, A CONCEPT IN HISTORY

AuthorshipSCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

    Abstract

    This article analyzes the concept of revolution in the history of Brazil since the 18th century until the country's current political moment. Considering that the history of any concept can never be well understood in short periods of time, this article consists of a long-term interpretative synthesis. After some introductory theoretical remarks, it focuses on some specific - and not exhaustive - historical contexts in which "revolution" has expressed significant social realities, at the same time that it interacts with these realities. The main thesis here is related to the central role that this concept, due to some variable structures, played in the Brazilian past, and still plays in its present.

    Keywords: Revolution; history of concepts; intellectual history; history of historiography; history of Brazil
