Description
This book provides a comprehensive analysis of neo-fascism and far-right movements in Brazil, situating them within the broader historical and political context of fascism globally. Odilon Caldeira Neto examines how fascist ideologies have emerged, evolved, and gained traction in Brazilian society, from the military dictatorship era through contemporary politics.
The work traces the intellectual origins of Brazilian fascism, its institutional expressions, and the social conditions that enable its appeal. Caldeira Neto explores the ideological foundations, organizational structures, and political strategies employed by far-right actors in Brazil, while considering the unique cultural and historical factors that shape Brazilian fascism.
As part of Cambridge’s Elements in the History and Politics of Fascism series, this volume contributes to the growing scholarly understanding of fascism beyond the European context, demonstrating how authoritarian and far-right movements adapt to different national settings and contemporary political landscapes.
