Abstract
This article aims to give centrality to the ethical dimension, which is fundamentally distorted by the current tendencies of Brazilian national politics, guided by the neoliberal ideology, which contradicts every form and intentionality of the principle of social justice. Documentary research was carried out using books, press articles and international reports. The article details the reasons that led to the impeachment of President Dilma and its developments in the context of the current coup d’état, as an expression of denial of democracy and dismantling of social rights achieved by workers in recent decades.
