HERNANDEZ, Aline Reis Calvo. Viropolitics. Rev. psicol. polít. [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.51, pp.421-434. ISSN 2175-1390.
This article aims to present the concept of "Viropolitics" from the perspective of Political Psychology. In order to arrive at the concept, three analytical dimensions are presented: the first, called B-17 Virus, analyzes the Bolsonaro phenomenon from the withdrawal of Dilma Rousseff from the presidency, the electoral race, the arrival to the presidency, the main support groups and the set of trends that shaped its form of government until the current situation, in which Brazil faces the Covid-19 pandemic. The second, called "Viropolitics", analyses the social and subjective resonances that the government exerts with different social groups, based on extremist positions. The third dimension, "Antibodies", analyses the decrease in support for the government during the pandemic and the responses undertaken by society to confront it. As a whole, the article articulates the political dimensions to the challenges posed by Covid-19 pandemic in Brasil today.
