Abstract

VASCONCELOS, Joana Salém. Between social war and crisis of politics. Ide (São Paulo) [online]. 2014, vol.36, n.57, pp. 41-53. ISSN 0101-3106.

This article is a reflection on the paradox of the Brazilian historical situation, heightened in June 2013: on the one hand, the state of social war makes urgent a set of structural transformations towards ensuring human rights; and on the other, the instruments of policy provided by Brazilian democracy traverse deep credibility crisis. This paradox contextualizes the emergence of actors such as the Black blocs, which proposes an aggressive tactic of rebellion, without any intention of power disputes. With such a breach of trust in the system, the minimum stability needed to run a programmatic organization is seen with fear, hindering the emergence of new political representations that could vocalize the indignation feelings from the streets.

Keywords : June 2013; Social war; Crisis of politics; Black Blocs.
