A democracia brasileira está ameaçada? Avaliação dos níveis de adesão à democracia entre os brasileiros

Abstract

This work seeks to analyze adherence to democracy in Brazil and evaluate the hypothesis “Is Brazilian democracy threatened?”. For this, data from the Barometer of the Americas from 2002 to 2019, and data from Varieties of Democracy in Brazil (V-Dem) are used. In the end, we seek to analyze how the quality of democracy and political culture are related to adherence to democracy in this government system. This research becomes useful by contributing to current reflection on democracy and the anti-democratic actions that threaten its existence.
