Brazil, Land of the Past scrutinizes the ideological roots of the so-called New Right in Brazil. The book traces the continuity and resilience of a system of thought based on the idea of a God-given hierarchical order to be defended against any social contract and modernizing relativization. It explains in detail how today a diverse movement - which includes actors ranging from the authoritarian Bolsonaro wing to economic liberals to the military to both Catholic and evangelical religious conservatives - assumes unanimously the ideas of this tradition as underlying premises of their political action. Though not always explicitly, this drives the self-declared "liberal-conservative" but rather anti-modernist reaction which claims to liberate an imaginary authentic "Brazil" from an aberrant "State" - and in so doing intends to preserve inherited privilege in an extremely unequal society.
