description | The article approaches how the populistauthoritarian inflection of global neoliberalism has gained traction in Brazil through friction withits post-colonial historical condition, marked by a disjunction between egalitarian, universalist liberal ideals and an unequal, particularistic socialreality. I will pay special attention to infrastructural convergences between neoliberalization and platformization, which, by creating a paradoxicaltemporality of permanent crisis, resonate with “forces and powers” that also operate non-linearlyaccording to a metaphysics of disorder, such as the various forms of nostalgia, millenarianism, andtraditionalism that follow the rise of the radical right throughout the world. I developed this argument focusing on two moments of Bolsonarism: the populist messianism during the 2018 elections, and its paradoxical routinization as a parasitic government operating in a temporality of exception, during the Covid-19 pandemic. This article suggestes that, in the face of the illiberal drift ofcontemporary neoliberalism, Bolsonarism propels Brazil into an avant-garde, putting ideas “back inplace”. |

This article suggestes that, in the face of the illiberal drift ofcontemporary neoliberalism, Bolsonarism propels Brazil into an avant-garde, putting ideas “back inplace”. L’article traite de la manière dont l’inflexion populiste-autoritaire du néolibéralisme mondial a gagné du terrain au Brésil par friction avec sa densité historique post-coloniale, marquée par la disjonction entre des idéaux égalitaires et universalistes libéraux et une réalité sociale inégalitaire et particulariste. Une attention particulière sera accordée à la convergence infrastructurelle entre néolibéralisation et plateformisation, qui, en consolidant une temporalité paradoxale de crise permanente (Chun, 2016), fait place à des résonances avec des “forces et des pouvoirs” qui opèrent aussi de manière non-linéaire selon unemétaphysique du désordre, comme les diverses formes de nostalgie, millénarisme et traditionalismequi accompagnent la montée de la droite radicale dans le monde. Je développe l’argument à partir dedeux moments du bolsonarisme: le messianisme populiste lors des élections de 2018 et, pendant lapandémie de covid-19, sa routinisation paradoxale en tant que gouvernement parasite qui opère dans une temporalité d’exception. Il est suggéréque, face à la dérive illibérale du néolibéralisme contemporain, le bolsonarisme lance le Brésil sur laavant garde, donc en remettant les idées “en place”. O artigo aborda como a inflexão populista-autoritária do neoliberalismo global tem ganhado tração no Brasil ao se friccionar com sua densidade histórica pós-colonial, marcada pela disjunção entre ideais liberais, igualitários e universalistas, e uma realidade social desigual e particularista. Volta-se especialmente à convergência infraestrutural entre neoliberalização e plataformização, que, ao consolidar uma temporalidade paradoxal de crise permanente, abre espaço para ressonâncias com “forças e poderes” que também operam de forma não linear, segundo a metafísica da desordem, como os diversos modos de nostalgia, milenarismoe tradicionalismo que acompanham a ascensão da direita radical pelo mundo. Argumento a partir de dois momentos do bolsonarismo: o messianismo populista nas eleições de 2018 e sua rotinização paradoxal enquanto governo parasítico na pandemia da Covid-19, que opera numa temporalidade de exceção. Sugere-se que, diante da deriva iliberal do neoliberalismo contemporâneo, o bolsonarismo lança o Brasil à vanguarda, colocando as ideias “de volta no lugar”. 2021-11-29 2022-03-17T14:38:57Z 2022-03-17T14:38:57Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artigo avaliado pelos pares https://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/crh/article/view/44377 10.9771/ccrh.v34i0.44377 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/39944 por https://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/crh/article/view/44377/25568 Copyright (c) 2021 Caderno CRH http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 application/pdf Universidade Federal da Bahia Caderno CRH; v. 34 (2021): PUBLICAÇÃO CONTÍNUA; e021022 1983-8239 0103-4979 |
