Resumo: The article discusses the meaning of military abolitionism during the crisis of the Brazilian Empire. Despite its heterogeneity, the military corporation was more united in what concerns abolition than in other ideological matters. Notwithstanding corporate reasons, political pleadings above all led the military segment to advocate the end of slavery. The argument is based on a reinterpretation of the military press and the civil correspondence, sources in which military abolitionism appears as a mechanism for gaining political leverage: abolition was understood as a measure to weaken the ruling class, and thereafter as a form to introduce new faces in public administration.

Malgrado sua heterogeneidade, a caserna foi mais uníssona quanto à abolição do que em outras matérias ideológicas. Sem prejuízo para as razões corporativas, foram sobretudo motivos políticos que levaram o segmento militar a endossar o fim do cativeiro. O argumento assenta-se sobremaneira na releitura da imprensa militar e da correspondência civil, fontes nas quais o abolicionismo castrense se afigura como mecanismo de ingresso na política nacional: compreendeu-se a abolição como medida de enfraquecimento da classe dirigente e, portanto, como forma de introduzir novos rostos na administração pública.UFRGS2020-01-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/anos90/article/view/8549510.22456/1983-201X.85495Anos 90; Vol. 27 (2020); 1-15Anos 90; v. 27 (2020); 1-151983-201X0104-236Xreponame:Anos 90 (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGS-30porhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/anos90/article/view/85495/55989Copyright (c) 2020 Anos 90info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGoyena Soares, Rodrigo2021-10-04T19:50:14Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/85495Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/anos90PUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/anos90/oaianos90@ufrgs.br||1983-201X0104-236Xopendoar:2021-10-04T19:50:14Anos 90 (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
