Abstract
The article seeks to think about how Raymond Williams’ theoretical formulations can help analyze the relations between culture and politics in the Brazilian society. The appropriation of some of his concepts - especially those of hegemony (associated with alternative hegemony), structures of feeling and determination - has been fundamental for my own investigations, which are highlighted in the text, as well as for other researchers in the human sciences.
