Social Change and Populist Politics in Brazil: The Baixada Fluminense and the Legendary Tenorio Cavalcanti, 1945-1964

Ralston, Tyler Andrew January 2013 (has links)
This project examines the Baixada Fluminense (or simply the Baixada), in metropolitan Rio. It specifically analyzes how rapid urbanization affected political and social change during Brazil's reasonably democratic 1945-1964 period. More specifically, I analyze how local-level populist politics, the accelerated social transformation resulting from industrialization, urbanization, violence, the press, and changes in the countryside not only affected the areas residents, but reflected trends, transformations, and major shifts on the national level as well as in Latin America as a whole. In effect, I argue that national issues became local issues, and vice-versa. This project, through a close textual analysis of both archival and printed sources, analyzes the political career of Tenório Cavalcanti, the region's dominant politician and strongman (known as the "Man in the Black Cape") as a an entry point into various aspects political and social climates on both the local and national levels. The Baixada, previously an agricultural area, became a center of industry with a population of nearly one million by 1960. The new arrivals to the Baixada included impoverished migrants from the countryside as well many of the urban poor from nearby Rio de Janeiro who sought both employment and living accommodations within their financial means. Tenório, whose career as a populist politician spanned this entire period, reflected the demographic, social and political changes in his electorate. His gradual shift from right to left (as a result of an increasingly radical and organized lower class constituency in both the city and the countryside) exemplified this phenomenon. I also challenge the notion of the "Populist Republic"- the nickname commonly given to the 1945-1964 period. By fully acknowledging that populism existed on a large scale, and that it is generally viewed in a negative light from both the left and the right, I argue that many of the problems of the democratic period (and the populist politics that dominated the era) resulted as much from systemic limitations and an incomplete transition to democracy as it did from corruption and demagoguery (by-products of these very limitations).

Interpretações da revolução mexicana: as leituras de José Carlos Mariátegui, Tristán Marof e Oscar Tenório / Interpretations of Mexican Revolution: the analysis of José Carlos Mariátegui, Tristán Marof and Oscar Tenório

Streich, Ricardo Neves 14 August 2015 (has links)
O presente trabalho tem por objetivo comparar as interpretações da Revolução Mexicana realizadas por três representantes dos ideais anti-imperialistas na América Latina da década de 1920: o peruano José Carlos Mariátegui, o boliviano Tristán Marof e o brasileiro Oscar Tenório. A partir de seus textos sobre o México, analisamos como estes intelectuais refletiram sobre os significados políticos da Revolução Mexicana no âmbito de seus países e também como a experiência mexicana possibilitou que os autores pensassem (e repensassem) seus projetos políticos, tanto na perspectiva nacional quanto na continental. Também abordamos a circulação de ideias políticas na América Latina, demostrando a singular importância deste evento para a geração de intelectuais do período em pauta. / This study aims to compare the interpretations of the Mexican Revolution made by three exponents of the anti-imperialist ideals in Latin America of the 1920s: the Peruvian José Carlos Mariátegui, the Bolivian Tristán Marof and the Brazilian Oscar Tenório. From their writings on Mexico, we analyzed how they reflected upon the political meanings of the Mexican Revolution within their own countries. We have also observed how their interpretations of Mexico Revolution sustained their political positions both in their own countries and in a continental perspective. In addition, we have demonstrated the circulation of political ideas in Latin America, showing the singular importance of the Mexican Revolution for the generation of intellectuals of 1920s.

A virtude dos sacrifícios versus a ciência das transações: Tenório Cavalcanti e o campo político do Rio de Janeiro / The virtue of sacrifices versus the science of negotiating: Tenorio Cavalcanti and the political arena in Rio de Janeiro

Claudio Araujo de Souza e Silva 31 October 2012 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Este trabalho tem como objetivo interpretar o fenômeno político expressado por Tenório Cavalcanti - político popular que atuou fundamentalmente em áreas periféricas e pobres da cidade e do estado do Rio de Janeiro entre as décadas de 1930 e 1960. Pretendo mostrar a narrativa, os símbolos e os códigos culturais que construíram a sua imagem pública e como a sua atuação marcou a dinâmica e a estruturação do campo político do Rio de Janeiro. A pesquisa baseia-se, fundamentalmente, no jornal Luta Democrática, entre os anos de 1954 e 1964, e nos seus discursos pronunciados na Câmara dos Deputados, entre 1951 e 1964. A partir da análise das fontes procuro mostrar de que maneira os elementos que constituem o fenômeno servem como ferramenta analítica para compreender melhor a construção de identidades sociais, os mecanismos de representação política, a forma como foram percebidos os processos de inclusão e exclusão social, assim como os conflitos sociais daquele período. / This dissertation interprets the politician Tenorio Calvacanti as a political phenomenon. Calvacanti was a popular politician who focused primarily on residents of the poor outskirts of the city and state of Rio de Janeiro between the 1930s and 1960s. I analyze the political discourse, symbols, and cultural codes that constituted his public image, as well as how his political work framed the dynamics and the structure of the political arena in Rio de Janeiro. This study draws on the newspaper Luta Democratica, between the years 1954 and 1964, and on his speeches in the Câmara dos Deputados (House of Representatives), between 1951 and 1964. Through analysis of these materials I show how the elements that constituted Calvacanti as a political phenomenon serve as an interpretive lens to better understand a variety of phenomena from this era, including the mechanisms of political representation, the construction of social identities, the way that the process of social inclusion and exclusion were publically perceived, as well as broader social conflicts of that period.
