Resumo: After a gradual development since its emergence in the 1980s, the democracy in Brazil has even shown signs of achieving certain consolidation. However, conflicts and imbalances between the powers of the Republic, conspiracy articulations, the return of the military to strategic positions in the Executive, and an impeachment process supported by a fragile accusation of a crime of responsibility in which the fraud was not found, among others phenomena, generated instability and put the discussion on the democratic issue in evidence. In this article, our aim is to outline a bibliographic review on the aforementioned theme, discussing the problems and limitations of post-military dictatorship Brazilian democracy based on five interpretations: Carlos Nelson Coutinho (1979), Boaventura de Souza Santos and Leonardo Avritzer (2002), Wanderley Guilherme dos Santos (2017), Luís Felipe Miguel (2017) and Vladimir Safatle, (2017). As specific objectives, we intend to apprehend a perspective on the concept of democracy, whenever possible, observing the Brazilian peculiarities; identify, from these readings, the recent problems of national policy; and, finally, to draw a panorama of the impasses of democracy in our country, that is, what makes it always on the razor's edge.

Sin embargo, conflictos y desequilibrios entre los poderes de la República, articulaciones de carácter conspirativo, el regreso de los militares a posiciones estratégicas del Ejecutivo, y un proceso de acusación sustentado en una débil acusación de un delito de responsabilidad en el que el fraude no fue encontrado, entre otros fenómenos, generaron inestabilidad y pusieron en evidencia la discusión sobre el tema democrático. En este artículo, nuestro objetivo es esbozar una revisión bibliográfica sobre el tema antes mencionado, discutiendo los problemas y limitaciones de la democracia brasileña post dictadura militar a partir de cinco interpretaciones: Carlos Nelson Coutinho (1979), Boaventura de Souza Santos y Leonardo Avritzer (2002), Wanderley Guilherme dos Santos (2017), Luís Felipe Miguel (2017) y Vladimir Safatle, (2017). Como objetivos específicos, pretendemos aprehender una perspectiva sobre el concepto de democracia, siempre que sea posible, observando las peculiaridades brasileñas; identificar, a partir de estas lecturas, los problemas recientes de la política nacional; y, finalmente, trazar un panorama de los impases de la democracia en nuestro país, es decir, lo que la hace estar siempre al filo de la navaja.Após um gradual desenvolvimento desde sua emergência nos anos 1980, a democracia no Brasil chegou a dar sinais de ter alcançado certa consolidação. No entanto, conflitos e desequilíbrios entre os poderes da República, articulações de teor conspiratório, retorno dos militares a cargos estratégicos do Executivo, e um processo de impeachment amparado por uma frágil acusação de crime de responsabilidade em que o dolo não ficou constatado, entre outros fenômenos, geraram instabilidade e recolocaram a discussão sobre a questão democrática em evidência. Neste artigo, nosso intuito é traçar uma revisão bibliográfica sobre a temática mencionada, discutindo os problemas e limitações da democracia brasileira pós-ditadura militar a partir de cinco interpretações: Carlos Nelson Coutinho (1979), Boaventura de Souza Santos e Leonardo Avritzer (2002), Wanderley Guilherme dos Santos (2017), Luís Felipe Miguel (2017) e Vladimir Safatle, (2017). Como objetivos específicos, pretendemos apreender uma perspectiva sobre o conceito de democracia, sempre que possível observando as peculiaridades brasileiras; identificar, a partir dessas leituras, os problemas recentes da política nacional; e, por fim, traçar um panorama dos impasses da democracia em nosso país, isto é, o que a faz estar sempre sobre o fio da navalha.Research, Society and Development2021-12-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2394010.33448/rsd-v10i16.23940Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 16; e257101623940Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 16; e257101623940Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 16; e2571016239402525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/23940/20915Copyright (c) 2021 Leon Karlos Ferreira Nunes; Angelo Girotto Netohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNunes, Leon Karlos FerreiraGirotto Neto, Angelo2021-12-20T11:03:07Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/23940Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:42:39.483192Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
