Resenha O lulismo em crise: retrato possível de um Brasil convulsionado

Abstract

André Singer’s Lulism in Crisis (2018) is yet another model of interpretation of the crisis of the alliance and governance system produced in the first two federal governments of the Workers Party (2003-2011) with the victory of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in the presidential elections. In this sense, this author’s work can be defined as a possible portrait of a convulsed Brazil, considering that other analyzes have been constructed in the last ten years. From the author’s thesis that the developmental and republican essays performed by the Dilma Rousseff governments (2011-2016) enabled the emergence of a set of social forces that supported the pattern of political and economic alliances of Lulism, we highlight the main elements of this that André Singer (2018) calls the puzzle of the crisis of Lulism.
