Impasses políticos à democracia brasileira: imperialismo, dependência e colapso do neodesenvolvimentismo

Abstract

The present work aims to investigate the international context related to the coup against the Dilma Rousseff government in 2016, analyzing the connection of these issues with the development of class struggles in Brazil. Furthermore, three specific objectives are presented, namely: discussing the relevance of the concept of imperialism in today's world, considering the contributions of classic and contemporary authors; analyze development and the crisis of developmentalism in the Brazilian space; debate the days of June 2013 and the 2016 coup in Brazil. The methodology adopted in the research presupposes a spatial cut that comprises Brazil's relationship with the world space and a temporal cut that encompasses the period of the Lula and Dilma governments, with an emphasis on the interval between 2013 and 2016 - the so-called Jornadas de Junho, which engendered the mobilization of millions of people in several cities across the country, to the institutional coup that interrupted the fourth consecutive PT federal government. In this project, we chose to take a geographical look at the issue of the 2016 coup, based on the hypothesis that the concept of imperialism remains current and is indispensable for thinking about the economic, social and political crisis that has befallen the country, paving a path of setbacks with the governments of Michel Temer (2016-2018) and Jair Bolsonaro (2019-2022). Therefore, a bibliographic review will be carried out, covering, primarily, the analysis and systematization of books and academic articles.
