The coup in democratic illusions and the rise of reactionary conservatism

Abstract:

In the article we discuss the Brazilian crisis and the political process that led to the rise of the reactionary conservatism and Dilma Roussef´s impeachment. We have tried to show how the main characters of the situation embody real interests of the social classes, mainly those interests linked to the financial capital and its internal agents. We have also tried to offer elements for the reader to understand the limits of democracy in Brazil, and the results of the class coalition policy in our country.

Keywords:
Crisis; Democracy; Impeachment; Conservatism; Reactionarism
