Acima do que? Au nom de qui? Uma análise comparada dos discursos das direitas radicais a partir das candidaturas de Jair Bolsonaro (2018) e Marine Le Pen (2017)

Abstract

This dissertation aims to conduct a comparative study on the rise of radical right-wing movements to the center of political arenas in their respective countries, through the analysis of the electoral campaigns of Jair Bolsonaro (Brazil, 2018) and Marine Le Pen (France, 2017). The use of comparative methodology aims to map the similarities and ruptures between the two phenomena, which occupy distant positions in the contemporary political world. In this scenario, the research demonstrates the relevance of local factors in analyzing the actors that make up the far right in the early decades of the 21st century, proving the impossibility of thinking about political systems in the global south, especially in Brazil, from a perspective of mere reproduction of analyses from the world political center.
