The book delves into the social and political factors leading to Jair Bolsonaro's election in Brazil, linking it to a broader global rise of far-right movements that challenge democracy. It examines the reactionary nature of Bolsonaro's support as a response to the democratic aspirations ignited by the 2013 protests against Brazil's political dysfunction. Additionally, it contextualizes Brazil's situation within the post-2008 financial crisis, highlighting the failures of a neoliberal democratic framework.
