Towards the reconstruction of democracy in Brazil

ABSTRACT

The article argues that the impeachment occurred in Brazil in 2016 configures a political crisis. Among other factors, the text highlights the politicization of the Judiciary and the conservative alliance between parties and right-wing social movements. Offering a kind of democratic reconstruction agenda, we affirm the urgency of a broad-based progressive coalition to contain the advance of setbacks in Brazil today. In such a coalition, it is fudamental the hability for the inclusion of diverse social cleavages, democratic voices and multiple social classes.
