Resumen
Descripción
Os últimos anos foram de mudanças e transformações no
mapa político brasileiro. Se até o ano de 2013 havia um
quadro político estabelecido e consolidado no país, a partir desse momento pode-se notar mudanças profundas e
sem precedentes no cenário nacional. Foi nesse ano que o
momento político brasileiro foi sacudido por manifestações
multitudinárias que, cujos efeitos balançaram as estruturas
democráticas do país. A partir das chamadas “Jornadas de
Junho”, um novo ente político passa a fazer parte da vida
pública brasileira. Grupos de uma “nova direita”, alinhada
aos espectros de um novo discurso neoliberal ousado e
pungente, passam a desafiar os valores da já consolidada democracia brasileira. Esse artigo pretende discutir os
resultados desse novo alinhamento político a partir de um
caso específico: a aproximação de grupos da comunidade
judaica com representantes dessa “Nova Direita Brasileira” (por vezes uma extrema direita bastante provocativa e
agressiva). Para tanto, pretendemos discutir os resultados da visita de um pré-candidato à presidência da república a um clube judaico na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, no
mês de abril do ano de 2017. Acreditamos que o debate
sobre essa visita e suas consequências pode contribuir
para entendermos melhor os novos processos políticos
que o país vivencia. Acreditamos também, que o caso da
visita a um clube judaico pode servir de modelo teórico e
metodológico para debate acerca de processos onde novos atores políticos passam a ser relevantes, refundando a cultura da conciliação brasileira, substituindo-a por
uma cultura política, essa de enfrentamento e denúncia.
The last years have been moments of changes and transformations in the Brazilian political map. If by the year 2013 there was an established and consolidated political framework in the country, from that moment one can notice profound and unprecedented changes in the national scenario. It was in that year that the Brazilian political map was shaken by mass demonstrations, which effects shook the democratic structures of the country. Since the so-called “Jornadas de Junho”, a new political entity becomes part of Brazilian public life. Groups of a “new Right”, aligned with the specters of a new bold and poignant neoliberal discourse, begin to challenge the values of the already consolidated Brazilian democracy. This article intends to discuss the results of this new political alignment from a specific case: the approximation of Jewish community groups with representatives of this “New Brazilian Right” (sometimes a very provocative and aggressive extreme right). Therefore, the article analyses the results of the visit of a presidential pre-candidate to a Jewish club in the city of Rio de Janeiro in April of 2017. It argues that the debate about this visit and its consequences may contribute to better understandings of the new political processes that the country experiences. Likewise the article suggests that the analyzed case can be useful as a theoretical and methodological model to discuss processes where new political actors become relevant, affecting the Brazilian conciliation culture, replacing it by a new political culture, where confrontation and denunciation became in the center of political agendas.
